He was last a Carolina Hurricane and also informed the Hurricanes in early September of his intention to hang them up, so this goes here.

17 seasons, 1145 games, 822 points, exactly 500 PIM. That's a pretty good career.

I remain a huge fan of the player, I'm decidedly less enthusiastic about the man, but whatever. Avs probably could've built a winner around him but stayed salary-floor cheap for pretty much all of his prime years. Wildly underrated player--not flashy but capable in all three zones, could dig pucks out and scrum in front of the net as good as anyone. A shame he didn't get his Cup, but a great career nonetheless.
