Notes:  Sasha has a lot of great qualities which is why he was a full member of the New Jersey roster for the 1998-99 season.  He also has a uncontrolable temper which is why at one point in the 1998-99 season, Sasha, couldn't go to any profesional hockey league in the US or Canada without serving a long suspension.  He had a 10 game suspension with the NHL for an unknown reason, a 6 game suspension in the AHL for head-butting, and a 20 game suspension in the IHL for jumping over the glass and kicking the crap out of a fan during a game a few seasons prior.  However, we have seen the other side of Sasha also.  We have seen the side that just loves the fans.  When he gets into a fight, he leaves it with a big response from the crowd to which he always responds in various ways.  And who can forget his rendition of "Raise the Roof", get your hands in the air.  We miss the Sasha/Dody team though, they were a great team together and worked well trying to boost the fans energy level.
