skolozsy2 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Always liked Versteeg. Solid hockey player, great work ethic, and a very entertaining character. I have a feeling he ends up working for Blackhawks organization in one way or another. Either in scouting, player development like Brian Campbell, or he joins Sharp, Jamal Mayers, and Adam Burish on the pre-game show. Just seems like he's been lingering around the organization for so long that Rocky finds a job for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Viking Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Guy was a mid round pick which usually means a long shot to do much at the NHL level. He carved out a decent career, raised the Cup and has millions in the bank to live off of for the rest of his life. Enjoy your retirement life $$$$ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Likely another Hawks hire, they love bringing in alumni as much as we seem to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Underrated clutch and pesky player, wish we had/ have someone like him for playoff runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 My favourite hockey players are Hasek, Palffy, Lidstrom, and Versteeg. Loved Versteeg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaku Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Honestly didn't even know he was still playing. Heck of a career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only played a short bit last season with the Rockford Icehogs. He got injured early, was on the shelf for about a month, and then called it quits shortly after returning. He said he realized he couldn't match the fire and intensity of the younger players anymore and felt bad taking ice time from them. So he asked out of his contract. He finished the year in Slovakia...Sweden maybe, can't remember...somewhere in Europe where his brother was playing.

Burrows was top 6 or top line for most of the prime of his career, whereas Kris provided quality depth to Hawks teams on 3rd lines. Reminds me of what we had from Higgins in past years, and hopefully Jake can have the same kind of impact 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters Stoch Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Feels like just yesterday that he was a rookie on the Canuck-killing Blackhawks team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
