His kind is definitely dying out in the league. It's too bad though.. I really didn't find he played all that badly when he did skate. Of course, he got such little ice time, and I suppose that must be because the coach - who certainly knows better than I do - didn't think he was fit to play the minutes. I'm struggling to think of a team who could use him. Arizona?
At this point in his career, he's not the 82 season, 8-10 minutes per game guy he wants to be. No team will give him that. They may think he can fill that role, but by Game 41 he'll have likely been a healthy scratch.
He's an option guy now. He's a good guy to have around the team. He pushes harder than anybody else and will keep the depth players in check. He can survive out there when need be, and as shown in the playoffs, can come out of the press box to fill a role.
In my opinion, he's making a mistake. Is playing probably 35 extra games and making an extra $750,000 really worth not retiring a Senator?
