The Colorado Avalanche won the Stanley Cup the season after he left them.

Why he might not be annoying:

He scored a goal in his first NHL game.
He scored over 1,000 points in his NHL career.
He scored over 600 goals in his NHL career.
He is the Lighting's Team Captain.
The Lighting, who were about to miss the playoffs, offered to trade him to the playoff-bound Montreal Canadiens, but he rejected it (2002).
Tampa Bay coach John Tortorella credits Dave with making the Lighting a real 'team,' and showing the younger players how to be 'professionals.'
John also makes it a point to have Dave take all the important face-offs during games.
