Mustard Tiger Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Good. I don't like players who are real good right up till they sign some big deal and their play just falls off a cliff. Greasy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Hope he joins Bieksa in the commentating business. Guys got just the right personality to really grow this game, off the ice. Have a great retirement. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greasy I'd argue he played the best hockey of his career in Nashville after signing that massive contract. NJ did a trick on him and he was asked to play a different role.

grumpyone Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 phew... I thought that we were going to sign him to an insane contract for a bit there. ( Benning would've ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While in Montreal this summer I heard a sportstalk radio interview with him. He never nailed it down - always side-stepping the questions of what he would do if he didn't get signed this fall. Essentially what it seemed like is that he thinks he's going to be a 'philanthropist' of some sort or a patron of charities. He made almost $80million dollars in his career, and if he was smart about his assets he could likely easily build that up to much more - you can do a lot of philanthropic stuff with that type of bankroll.

PunjabiCanucks Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Not to make this a race thing Totally agree he'd be an amazing broadcaster But imagine if he opened up a hockey academy for African American/ Canadian Kids- he'd be a legacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophomore Jinx Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Didn't see it coming TBH, I thought he had another kick at the can. While he was a bit of a rat on the ice, I always liked the guy, and his philanthropic largesse is just a testament, as to who the real PK is. I agree with others also, he'd be a great addition to the broadcasting fraternity. We need more outspoken, knowledgeable hockey personalities. I wish him well.

-AJ- Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Kind of a crazy early career retirement for a player who was so good a few years ago. I have to imagine he's received some good offers to be in the broadcasting space, so he probably already has some great options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devron Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I’m curious if he was even offered a PTO by any team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BureBurrito Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 he's moving onto a new tv series (ESPN?)...great player but time was up for him to hang it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I thought he'd catch on somewhere, wild. But good for him. Hope to see him in hockey broadcasting at something, he's got the personality for it. Wish there were more players like him in that sense, most hockey players have pretty subdued public personas.
