With the Pens, he performed as a defensive specialist for 49 games during the 1991–92 campaign before heading to the minors with the Muskegon Lumberjacks, Cleveland Lumberjacks, and Kalamazoo Wings of the IHL.

In 1994, the strong skating centre took his game to England to play for Sheffield. He retired from hockey at the close of the 1998–99 season.
