"Hodson won the Memorial Cup with Sault Ste. Marie in 1993 and a Stanley Cup as a backup with the Red Wings in 1998. Acquired by the Lightning in the Wendel Clark trade. Will get every opportunity to win the starting job in Tampa Bay. Hodson is a goalie coach's nightmare. He has absolutely no style whatsoever. Whatever method he uses though, seems to work. Has to shake reputation as a career backup goalie. The unorthodox Hodson will compete for the No. 2 job. (The Sports Forecaster 1999-2000, p. 141)
