Chorske was a good two-way player and an effective penalty killer. Yup, he had plenty of athletic skill. Those that followed him
in high school would tell you that, with being Mr. Hockey in Minnesota in 1985 and also playing quarterback for Southwest
High School.
He sure knows how to celebrate a Cup win, too, from what a friend tells me of personal experience.
That and bringing the Cup around to places in his hometown.
The waiver claim by the Senators was a good thing for them, as he helped the Sens to their first ever postseason berth. He
would bounce around the League after leaving the Sens, playing his last NHL game with the Penguins in 99-00, and one of any
kind in 00-01 with the Houston Aeros.
After retirement, he completed his degree at his alma mater, the University of Minnesota, and worked as the senior account
executive for Merrill Corp.
He also worked as the color commentator for Devils games on WFAN for the 06-07 season.
Entry Draft: 1985 First Round Pick (16th overall) by the Montreal Canadiens
