THE SKINNY: The cynics out there still wonder - with some justification -
what has he ever won?... Played well for Canada at the 1996 Canada Cup, but
didn't close the deal... Has played his best hockey when his team has been the
underdog (remember those series with Edmonton against Dallas?) but that
certainly won't be the case in Salt Lake... Expected to be Canada's starter
after Colorado Avalanche goaltender Patrick Roy pulled his name out of
consideration... Signed as a non-drafted free agent by the St. Louis Blues in
1989... Has topped the 30-win mark with the Leafs the last three seasons...
FAMOUS FOR: Nickname "Cujo".
INFAMOUS FOR: Bark has been worse than his bite.
SHOOTOUT POTENTIAL: Has stopped 7/9 NHL penalty shots.
