All I can say is...

You go Mike. He's never really been given the accolades that he really deserves. Spent his entire career with the Stars franchise.

[drfnr14]

he needs to retire.

He's an old classic... I tip my hat to him

Always liked Madano.

One of the best American born players. Great leader and team player.

Although, not what he once was, he can still contribute and should be able to retire a Star when he sees fit.

I wholeheartedly agree.

Modano's a class act and a fantastic hockey player. A first ballot hall of famer, no question.

Pure class player, my favourite player when i grew up i remember, all the best of luck to this michigan native and probably the best american born player to play the game (yeah even better than hull)

He's a good contributor. There's a reason he can't seem to stay captain for too long, but if he can stay healthy for a full season he's got the speed, hands, and grit to get it done. One of USA hockey's finest of all time. I can especially respect that he's stayed with the same team his entire career. Also, can respect that he was born in Livonia like my father was.

That's because Hull wasn't born in America. He became a U.S. Citizen.

Remove the "born"...I meant just american player.


btw, he never played for Canada did he... so i just thought he was born in america

Chelios was much better than Modano.

Modano is borderline HoFer imho, personally I would not put him in, but he will probably make it because he is one of the best American players ever.

[xBrave_Heartx]

I HATE modano..

[Ozzy318]

go Modano. I have allways been a fan of his since his days with the North Stars. He is definitely a first ballot HoFer.

You're the man, Mike! Good for the Dallas Stars, for recognizing one of the best players ever in their franchise, for what he's done for the team and for hockey. He is a class act!

Love ya, Mikey Mo!

[uk_redwing]

I HATE modano..

Ditto. Hes a big skating ******.

[JayUp88]

Goooo Mike

[Chelios57]

I HATE modano..

Move to Ohio then!

Congrat's Mike, one of my favorite players of all time.

(jk by the way braveheart )

Madonna can still produce points, but isn't really a guy they can count on anymore to lead the team.

Wouldn't be surprised if he winds up a 3rd liner next year.

[Williams29fan]

Yea Mike! Always been my favorite American born Hockey player!!

Always a class act and represents MI very well!

[kidish]

Modano is a real class act. He was better when younger, but he's adjusted his play to stay relevant nonetheless. The Dallas organization is lucky to have him.
