Jeremy Roenick scored his 500th career goal on Saturday night. He’s long been a favorite player of mine (If you’ve ever wonder why I’ve been wearing #27 since my second season playing the game, which was around 1994, well now you know.) and I was overjoyed to see him sign with the Sharks, even though I didn’t expect he’d have much of an impact at this point in his career. I was dead wrong, and thankfully so. He’s had a strong positive impact on the team both on and off the ice.
Congratulations to Jeremy for becoming only the 40th player ever, and only the 3rd american, to reach this milestone. The way he’s carried himself makes me proud to be a fan of Jeremy Roenick, a fan of the San Jose Sharks, and an american hockey player.
