He is a coach now. And he is pushing 50. I wouldn't hold your breathe for a return to the NHL.

i never said anything about him returning. i'm just wondering why a player who scored 95 points in 105 games quit so he could play in germany.

Look at it realistically. He had one good year, 81-82. If you take that away, he has 28 points in 45 games. Just to put some perspective on his one good year. That was the year Gretzky scored 212 points. The leading scorer on the Caps that year was Dennis Maruk, with 136 points, which was good enough for 4th overall.
