Well before Steve Begin made his name as a hard-nosed, do-anything forward for Val-d’Or in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League - in his draft year, he had 13 goals and 23 assists with 218 penalty minutes, prompting Calgary to nab him with the 40th pick in 1996 - he understood that the narrower he defined his role, the more ...
