BigTex 1 Report post Posted April 9, 2007 I really will be shocked if Sakic retires. There's no way that guy should even be thinking about that right now. It's gotta be something else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted April 9, 2007 It's probably for re-signing Sakic. He still has a few years left, so I doubt he'd retire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rwfan007 18 Report post Posted April 9, 2007 (edited) the link says, "major announcement", and i am sure a re-signing isnt a major announcement. I feel that this is the end of Sakic in the NHL. good guy, even as an av. then again, the update says that it may be a 1 year re-sign. but is that really a "major announcement"?

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted April 9, 2007 I feel that this is the end of Sakic in the NHL. good guy, even as an av. 100 points, 7th in league scoring, why would he retire? Guy's a beast. then again, the update says that it may be a 1 year re-sign. but is that really a "major announcement"? He is Joe Sakic. Pretty important fella.
