Congrats Bulldog, he was one of my favorite Canucks during a miserable run for the team and I was sad when he got traded.

 

That said, he played 243 NHL games which is impressive when you remember he was an undersized defensemen with limited offensive upside and who played 4 seasons in the NCAA and another 4.5 seasons in the AHL before making his NHL debut with the Canucks.

 

I won't be shocked if he's one of those guys that becomes a great Coach and/or GM in the future.

Possible assistant coach in Abbotsford one day? (If that's the path he choses). The guys a class act, a hard worker with insane determination. Great mentor for our young players. I'm sure he would also love to live on the lower mainland again.

I can't add much to your summary. What always struck me with Alex Biega was that it never made a dif how long he sat out when he played it was full throttle. His statement was an indication of the man. Quality person!
