  • I'm sorry you can't go out on your own terms. I hope your retirement is great and filled with family and friends. 

  • Thanks, appreciate it. I don't have to get up at 4:50 am anymore. That's a plus!

  • To me, there's a difference between players would could not live up to their expectations and a player who, due to health issues, didn't get the chance to.  We'll never know what Patrick could have do

As a former goaltender in hockey, still play from time to time but the knees don’t cooperate as much but as a former goaltender, terry sawchuck was a local hero for sure. Believe he died young tho but dude lived in the area i grew up in and the old incinarena was renamed to honor him. Terry grew up on Melbourne avenue in East Kildonan. I grew up about 10 streets away. Legend 

it’s still crazy to me that he died because him and a friend got into a bit of a brawl and yup. Weeks later he passed away. Also crazy that he’s buried in Michigan

Nobody really knew when Bower was born. It was crazy.

I heard it was chiseled on a stone tablet that he kept in his yard....but unfortunately it was all in Roman numerals.

SJ had a good team at one point. Jumbo Joe Little Joe and now Couture done truly is a new day in San Jose. 

I never thought Thornton had what it took to be a winner.  I watched that collapse of the Sharks against Edmonton in 2006 where they were up 2-0 and then lost game 3 in a mega-long OT game, and then dropped 3 straight after that, and just knew they didn't have the drive to win it all.
