lot of Ice time as he Is usually also on the power play Like Barnes Mil ne will have to have a good offensive showing for the Blake He had a falling out Gem coach Ron Dixon and left the team around Christmas General manager Bob Tost convinced him to return and he has been one of the Gems strongest players since that time He Is in his lasl and has never looked bet than he does now Expect Shortiil
