    His performance with the Unified Team at the 1992 Winter Olympics impressed scouts enough to consider him for the NHL Entry Draft.
    He scored the series-winning goal in the overtime of Game 7 against the Detroit Red Wings that sent the Maple Leafs to the Campbell Conference Finals (1993).
    He operated a hockey school in the Greater Toronto Area in the years following his retirement from hockey.
    He was a favorite player of actor and notable Leafs fan Mike Myers, that his name served as the inspiration for the General Nicolai Borschevsky character in his film 'Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery.'
