I'm sure there are some elements where he's thinking "well is it worth it to f*** my  back up some more and make only $3 million? It's not impossible that he's thought that. I just think 40 points to 1000 is a thing and I'm sure he would have loved to hit it. I strongly believe his back was getting worse. These things rarely get better as you get older. Now whether it's bad enough to not play in the NHL for another season; we won't know until they release details. They released details about Franzen's situation like 3 years after the fact? 

Not sure if someone should be criticized for "retiring" with a persistent health issue. Lidstrom's reason for retiring was basically "I don't really feel like going through summer training again". Sounds a lot less interesting than "hey my back has been missing my disc for 4 years and I played through it, I think I might want a break now"

Regardless, the fact that he still played after that surgery is incredible and the org definitely owes him whatever he needs. They didn't just remove a piece of his bone to relieve the pressure. The straight up removed part of his disk. That's a major surgery. He probably went to some hyped up hospital on West of East coast to do it. 

Yep. Yep.

They need to bring Yzerman, Lidstrom in for like a bootcamp for the Red Wing players. Like a one week getaway with those guys end of August every year.

Fckin Yzerman is a Tampa guy at the moment tho.
