Well who is??? He still brings them experince and talent. He has so much understanding about the game and a lot of little tricks to help teach the new guys. All that makes him a very valuable addition IMHO.

Leetch said he'll need to communicate with his defensive partner, who must stay back to cut off long passes to forwards in the neutral zone. While Leetch has to be more cautious of forwards now, he doesn't plan on making big adjustments to his style.
''To be effective, I need to be helping out at both ends," Leetch said. ''I need to pass the puck up and also come in late when the forwards are being boxed up so they have someone late to get the puck to."
...
''He sees people," Gardner said. ''He makes plays that most people don't. If a guy slips behind the defense and is open, Brian's going to find him. I remember watching him and [Mark] Messier when they were a man down. They were dangerous. Messier knew Leetch would get him the puck somehow. Now that they've eliminated the red line? Holy moly."
