A small fraction away from being a Point per Game player as a Boston Bruin, Peter McNab was a skilled scorer known for his accurate shot and excellent stick handling. McNab was far from the best skater on the ice, but he had a high hockey I.Q. and knew where to position himself to optimize his scoring chances. He was an All-Star once in 1977.
