Wow.
Betcha he finds front office work and stays in LA

 

[BringTheReign]

My favorite LA Kings photo of all time. Oh captain, my captain!

 

[123slam]

This one makes me le sad.

 

[Bandit]

It's the right move.

Thanks for everything Dustin, enjoy retirement, you've earned it.

 

[Ryan120420]

#23 going to the rafters next season.




Wish he made the announcement before the last regular season home game so they could honor him.

 

[BigBrown]

An all time Kings great, that's for sure.

[RavenGuard]

As an Oilers fan I say good riddance! Begone you pest!!! Could you retire this weekend instead please?

As a hockey fan it makes me a little sad. No Getzlaf or Brown after this year? Going to be kind of weird.

True competitor and one heck of a player.

 

[Master Yoda]

It was time. Glad it's happening. But sad to see it happen.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Very sad, even if we knew it was coming.

Makes extra sense why these guys wanted the playoffs so badly, too.

Emotional boost, maybe? We'll see if that overcomes the hockey deficiencies. Knowing we get at least 4 more games is nice--hope he goes out like a stud.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

It’s a pipe dream, but going out with another Cup would be the chef’s kiss.

 

[KingsFan7824]

For a couple weeks in the spring of 2012, there wasn't a better player playing anywhere.

So glad he's not going to try floating around the league for peanuts. He'll retire with dignity. Knees around the league rejoice.

 

[lexlavender]

The good old days when Dustin was dominating before the first cup

 

[Ryan120420]

For a couple weeks in the spring of 2012, there wasn't a better player playing anywhere.

If it wasn't for Quicks INSANE goaltending during that run, there is no doubt in my mind that Brown would have won the Conn Smythe.

 

[KINGS17]

Dustin, you did the right thing.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

So glad he's not going to try floating around the league for peanuts. He'll retire with dignity. Knees around the league rejoice.

Yeah, I'm glad he didn't force the Kings to make a tough decision next season.

Kings legend forever.

 

[Holden Caulfield]

One of the all time greats. Ive only ever owned 2 Kings jerseys, a Ziggy Palffy and a Dustin Brown jersey i bought back in 06-08 range. Got lots of use out of that haha. Was my favourite NHLer for a long time. He will always be the first Kings player to ever raise the Stanley Cup.

Gotta imagine the Kings will keep him around in some capacity if Brown wants that.

 

[Bandit]

So glad he's not going to try floating around the league for peanuts. He'll retire with dignity. Knees around the league rejoice.

Still can't believe he caught that hat and was able to put it on his head. Legend.

 

[mbar]

The CBC commentary on that still pisses me off. Clean hit.

 

[kovacro]

You don’t very often in this era a player spending his entire career with one organization. What a warrior and thank you for the memories. It was a pleasure to watch you give it your all night in, night out.

Enjoy your retirement. We’ll earned.

 

[Stimpythecat]

Congrats on an amazing career! Well earned retirement.

 

[Choralone]

We all wanted it and were afraid it wasn't going to happen, but now that it is - I'm bummed. A true Kings legend.
