hatedkid666 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Great career. All the way back when he played for flames with Phaneuf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Had a lot of respect for him. He was tough, mean and played the game the right way. Just a solid player you want on your team, a Darryl Sutter type of guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoreanHockeyFan Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I wonder what the reason is... He hasn't had any lingering injuries has he? Finds no fun in the game? Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I mean he had a scary incident early in his career by a car crash, but I mean, this guy had a few more years in him. Good career nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I'd retire too if I had to play in that pathetic organization =) Man I'm so happy they missed the playoffs... I won't stop taking jabs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 He had a solid career, all the best. Wonder who LA replaces him with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dasein Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 He's won the Stanley Cup and played 1000+ games in the NHL - not much more he can accomplish at this point What laypeople like us always forget is that players need to think of life after hockey, and I'm guessing Regehr wants to retire with some left in the tank (having won a Cup and all) so that he can have a richer and healthier life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Probably will try to re-sign Andrej Sekera Would seem the most logically option, considering he's a UFA at the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tocnhockey Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Brooksie at it again..............http://nypost.com/20...champion-kings/Parity didn’t take down the Kings. Time finally caught up to them. The grind caught up to them.Seriously, 64 playoff games over the last three years in which L.A. won the Cup twice and lost in the conference finals — their seasons ending on June 11, June 8 and June 13, respectively.And though the league has done everything within its power to promote parity, the cap acting as the elemental mechanism, the calendar eventually plays its part. The 1980-83 Islanders hoisted their four straight Cups between May 16 and May 24. The 1976-79 Canadiens captured their four straight between May 14 and May 25. The 1956-60 Canadiens were done between April 10 and April 20 in winning their five straight.So fatigue was certainly one of the issues the Kings could not overcome in becoming the first defending Cup champion to fail to qualify for the playoffs since the 2006-07 Hurricanes. But there was a fatigue of a different kind at work as well in L.A., for the fact is the players had become tired of Coach Daryl Sutter.Slap Shots has been told by two sources that the Kings locked the door to their locker room following a defeat on the road within the last two weeks so that Sutter could not get in and deliver what the players apparently expected to be another in a series of lectures/tirades.As the tale was told, after Sutter finally tracked down an arena operative to unlock the door, he was greeted by three heavy waste receptacles lined up as barricade to what had become an empty room.Thus, it would be no stretch to suggest tension between the team and the coach, who led the Kings to those two Cups, was a significant issue as L.A. went down the stretch before their elimination Thursday night in Calgary following a shocking defeat two nights earlier in Edmonton, of all places.Imagine. Players, for once, engineering a lockout. http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/report-kings-locked-sutter-out-of-dressing-room/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugor Hill Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 At first I was concerned that LA gets his cap dumped, but then I realized that he is UFA anyways so I don't give a tiny little rat's ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
