[Kcb12345]

[Hockeyholic]

I think Letang will be a surprise retire.

 

[FissionFire]

Will Matt Cullen finally retire?

I expect Kronwall to retire.

Plekanec maybe?

 

[Wayne Primeau]

Matt Cullen, Chris Kunitz, Dennis Seidenberg, Matt Moulson.

 

[sharks9]

Will Matt Cullen finally retire?

I expect Kronwall to retire.

Plekanec maybe?

He'll probably keep playing back home. He's done in the NHL though

 

[MMC]

Hopefully Patrick Eaves and Ryan Kesler. Both are done as NHLers and need to do what’s best for their health.

 

[JianYang]

Jason Spezza

His offensive numbers have plummeted. Like plekanec, he fizzled out a wee bit early. 35 years of age is not young, but highly skilled players such as Spezza usually find a way to continue being productive beyond that age.

Not sure if it's his back or what. I haven't heard much about his since he left for Dallas.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Kronwall and I think De La Rose will be done

 

[Stive Morgan]

Kronwall and I think De La Rose will be done

de la Rose was done before he even started. Absolutely no offensive instinct at all.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

de la Rose was done before he even started. Absolutely no offensive instinct at all.

Probably true but I mean health wise which is what I figured OP meant but if it's skill..we'all that applies too

 

[clunk]

Loui Eriksson might unofficially retire by going on 'LTIR'.

 

[BrockLobster]

Andrew Ladd hopefully

 

[njdevils1982]

does drew stafford qualify?

regardless……..be gone

 

[Dustin]

Marleau. Lowest goal scoring season in maybe ever. Lowest point totals since the 48 game lockout.

 

[tntkid]

I hope Corey Perry.

Put a fork in him because he is finished.

 

[These Are The Days]

Marleau and Thornton both have to be thinking about it. Kronwall has to be as well. Eaves needs to go and think about his health as another poster mentioned. I can't imagine Brooks Orpik going a lot longer either. Kunitz has BEEN done. He needed to bow out after the Pens won their 2nd Cup

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

de la Rose was done before he even started. Absolutely no offensive instinct at all.

That's not a requirement on the Wings these days. I'm just thankful he hasn't been given a 7-year $4.25 million contract.

 

[DJJones]

Marleau. Lowest goal scoring season in maybe ever. Lowest point totals since the 48 game lockout.

Give up 7 million?

Maybe he gets a rash over the summer though

 

[Stive Morgan]

That's not a requirement on the Wings these days. I'm just thankful he hasn't been given a 7-year $4.25 million contract.

Yet.

inb4 he's the next Dan Cleary

 

[BoltSTH]

Dan Giradi may. His injury seems pretty bad, and his play a fallen off significantly.

 

[fasterthanlight]

Thornton's not gonna retire next year --- he might even hit 20G this year

 

[JustinCase]

McDavid will retire, just to get himself out of Edmonton.
