Leach grew up in Cherry Hill, New Jersey and played hockey at Cherry Hill High School East.[1]
Leach did not qualify for a Cup inscription in 1991 as he had played too few NHL games that season (seven regular season games). He played enough games with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 1992 to get his name on the Stanley Cup.
