Profile :
Dave is the co-founder and alternate captain of the Sasquatch. He begrudgingly plays center basically because nobody else wants to. A speedy forward, Dave is very aggressive on the forecheck, using his stick like a hatchet at times. He was having a career year in 2000-2001, with 15 points and 24 PIM in 12 games, when he was traded to Phoenix as part of a deal that brought the Sasquatch a # 1 draft pick ( used to take Bob Stewart ). Dave was heartbroken at the time but says he harbors no ill will toward Sasquatch management and has not ruled out a return in the future.
Career Highlights :
Co-founder of the Sasquatch, with Tony Lopez, in 1998
Had a strong 1999 Spring league campaign with 13 goals in 15 games
Before being traded Dave took over the career regular season penalty minute lead with 101 PIM
Strengths :
With a strong slapshot he has spent his career waiting for that one shot off a faceoff
Could take down an oak tree with one fatal swing
Has a house on the O.D. in Sea Isle City
Weaknesses :
Ill-timed penalties can get his team into trouble
Some questioned his mental status after he was found wearing his helmet and cage from the time he entered the locker room until the time he left
Horrible travel schedule
