Remember how Jere Lehtinen earned the deathless nickname “the King of Little Things”? Tireless attention to the correct play, the correct position, no matter where, when or with whom, earned No. 26 three Selke Awards, a rack full of international hardware and the eternal devotion of Dallas Stars fandom.*
*Who still want to see his number retired and his name in the Hockey Hall of Fame. I’ll just keep repeating this until it happens.
You can always use a little more Lehtinen in your game, I don’t care how much you score, and it seems head coach Lindy Ruff agrees.
