David Cooper Facts

He was considered a shoo-in for a long NHL career, but it never happened. Cooper was a great passer, but he had some defensive drawbacks and didn't leverage his size often enough. He was spending the majority of his time in AHL and got opportunity in only few games in NHL. Then he decided to take his career in a different direction and elected to continue his career in Europe. After just one year in Germany he gave NHL his last shot. Though the year was spent in the minors again, he did resurface at the NHL level for two games with Toronto Maple Leafs. After that he moved back to Europe and finished his career playing for many teams in Germany, Russia, Italy and Denmark. He was one of the first Canadians to play in Russia prior to the founding of KHL.

I thought, `This is it. I'll go over to Europe and finish up my career,' but I began to enjoy it so much that I was anxious to come back
