A ninth round pick, 189th overall in the 1985 NHL Entry Draft. Despite being picked that low, he played 14 seasons in the NHL. Despite being a 6'2" 200 lbs, Gord was more of a finesse player. He relied on positioning, a poke check and wrapping up his opponent than using the body. He won the Barry Ashbee Trophy in the 89/90 season as the Flyers top defenceman.
One of the times using his body.
I say not young and no superstar here.

Too many ice hockey teams are in North America when they should have had the majority of their teams in Canada. This is especially sad and unfortunate when it is the N.H.L. I am talking about here.
