"Crombeen is like Brenden Morrow is a lot of
ways. He's a hard-nosed kid who brings it every night. He's hard to play
against, he's strong and competitive, with pretty good puck skills. He
is an exciting player. We project him as a player who will complement
guys like Polak and Eriksson because he's a big guy who can get to the
net and make space."
Stars assistant GM Les Jackson on B.J. Crombeen in

"He’s a hard-nosed kid who has a lot of good qualities and fits
the criteria we look for in North American players."
