“Having the opportunity to realize my childhood dream of playing in the NHL, and being able to have played professional hockey for 20 seasons, has been an incredible experience,” said Aucoin. “I really enjoyed playing with and against some of the best players in the game, and getting the chance to play in front of such great hockey fans. Thanks to my family, teammates, friends, fans and everyone in the hockey community who helped me in my career. I will look back on it with fondness and pride for the rest of my life.”

I remember him well when he played here in Vancouver. He had a hard slap shot back in the day.

You gotta give us a few days. We're still banging our heads against walls due to losing tonight.

Good guy, but I always wanted to see him Kronwalled just so I could say Nik couldn't decide who to hit so he decided to flip Aucoin.

All the best to him.

He is probably better than some of our current vets... can we sign him?

I remember him having a hard shot. I honestly thought he retired years ago.

What is the over/ under percentage of current Chicago fans that know he was a Blackhawks captain not that long ago?
