It's OK, Dallas! Sundin will take your place! Enjoy retirement! You've earned it!

What a great story for Drake to come back to Detroit and win the Cup. I'm not sure about Sundin, but the Wings have some good young players like Kopecky that can fill his role.

I meant Matts as a senior statesman. Now that Drake is retiring and it looks like Chelios won't be back, he'd be next in line for that role. And, yeah, Kopecky is capable!

Dallas is as tough as nails and a true warrior. He has earned his retirement, but the NHL needs more guys like this......

Just like Bettis, Elway, and Strahan. Go out on top. Can you pick a better way to retire?! Have a great one.

It's always good to retire on a good note. It takes guts to do so.
Enjoy, you've earned it!

What a way to go out, coming back to Detroit and winning it all. Unlike the Dominator, who stayed a little too long

His timing is great, assuming he goes through with it. Assuming he goes, look for Aaron Downey to play more.
