Jeremy Roenick got emotional during his Hockey Hall of Fame induction speech on Monday night. The former NHL star welled up with tears when thanking his former San Jose Sharks general manager Doug Wilson.
Roenick was one of seven new inductees to the Hockey Hall of Fame's class of 2024, joining fellow players Shea Weber, Pavel Datsyuk, Natalie Darwitz and Krissy Wendell-Pohl. Hockey executives David Poile and Colin Campbell were also inducted in the Builder category.
During his speech, Roenick thanked all the teams he played for during his 20-year NHL career, including the Chicago Blackhawks, Phoenix Coyotes, Philadelphia Flyers and Los Angeles Kings. But he saved special praise for the San Jose Sharks and Doug Wilson.
