Playing career

Hailing from Creston, British Columbia, Huscroft was recognized as a rugged, defensive-minded defenceman, celebrated for his determination, strong work ethic, and resilience. Although not endowed with exceptional speed or finesse, he amassed close to 3,000 penalty minutes throughout his professional tenure, including more than 1,000 minutes in the NHL. Generally positioned as a sixth or seventh defenseman, he earned respect from both teammates and opponents for his tenacity and leadership qualities.

Selected 171st overall by the New Jersey Devils in the 1985 NHL Entry Draft, Huscroft began his professional career in 1987. He spent five seasons primarily with New Jersey's AHL team in Utica while making 65 NHL appearances for the Devils before moving to the Boston Bruins in 1992. By the middle of the 1993–94 season, he secured a consistent spot on Boston’s NHL roster and went on to compete for six additional seasons at the highest level. His NHL journey also included stints with the Calgary Flames, Tampa Bay Lightning, Vancouver Canucks, Phoenix Coyotes, and Washington Capitals. Concluding his playing career in 2001, Huscroft recorded 5 goals, 37 points, and accumulated 1,065 penalty minutes over 352 NHL contests.

Following retirement, Huscroft transitioned into coaching as an assistant with the Spokane Chiefs of the Western Hockey League. Presently, he is involved with Hockey Educational Systems (HES) in Renton, Washington, where he mentors amateur hockey players. Additionally, he holds the position of director of facilities at Sno-King Ice Arenas located in Renton and Kirkland, Washington.
