Sabres fan here. I've always liked Whitney. It goes all the way back to his days with the Blue Jackets and Detroit, anways I was wondering if you guys think he'll make the HOF now? What he's done at this age in his career is simply amazing....

Congrats to the Wizard, from a sharks fan who remembers his days in teal, in both SF (Cow Palace) and San Jose.

He was the 2nd San Jose Shark ever, after Pat Falloon. It's amazing to realize his NHL career is as old as the Sharks themselves.

I think I may have some photos from 1991 that I took, of him playing in the cow palace.
