He was also incredibly well rounded as a player, able to produce offensively and defensively. This ability to play great defense as a forward led him to later win two Selke Trophies with the Carolina Hurricanes. (Oddly, however, he finished his Flyers career as a minus-3.)
He was a team leader, serving as Kevin Dineen's and Eric Lindros' alternate captain and wore the "C" when Lindros was out of the lineup.
He was traded in 2000 for Keith Primeau in a deal that still divides the fanbase. He went on to play 10 seasons with the Carolina Hurricanes, leading them as team captain to the Stanley Cup in 2006 and eventually have his No. 17 retired by that franchise.
