Crom! Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I'd agree with Lax on this one. I'd say that the majority of NHL quality players retire between 36-39. Very few play into their forties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboose Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I think age 38 should start at 25% and so on from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crom! Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I could see it being harder for prospects to progress if their spots are being taken by veterans who are playing into their late thirties. But like The Phaneuf train has alluded to, there is the nostalgia factor of having players like Alfedsson play longer. edit* I wish Naslund would have played into his late 30's, I mean he is only 39 right now.

BananaMash Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Doan better not retire since his contract was signed prior to the rule change. Doan has let me down before, however. Edit: It does look good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
