    Hey at least Shari will get to see him a little more often.

    Sorry, Shari, low hanging fruit, couldn't resist.

    Of course he's going to announce his retirement. He's 38 with concussion problems why else would he have a press confrence.

    To announce that he's fully recovered and coming back to win a Stanley Cup?

    Pronger will never win a Cup.

    He has no peripheral vision. If he comes back, he'll get cleaned out in one of the first shifts. He should just retire like the giant pussy that he is and skate off into hockey irrelevancy like most other players with a longterm home or Cup.

    The sad thing, it's going to be a debate of whether this guy's number should be retired and by whom. He didn't play long enough besides STL to justify it. He also didn't win a Cup

    He has an won an Olympic gold medal, a World Championship gold medal, and the Stanley Cup. I don't even like the guy, but you keep harping on an incorrect point.

    He can't officially retire or he won't get his money on the contract.

    He can't retire or he won't get paid.

    He will never play again, his brain is mush.

    Question: Chris, did the doctor tell you that you can never play again?

    Answer: Oh I don't think you can ever say that. I'm working toward getting healthy.

    C'mon guy,

    Pronger is 38 and has constant headaches.

    0% chance he ever plays again.

    He was one of the dirtiest, scumbag players to ever play but you can't help but admire the guys intimidation and blunt honesty

    I think he's played his last game though personally.

    Considering he's moved back to STL, I'd say it's retirement.

    Only way that happens is if he takes a coaching position with another team.

    Pronger is a giant pussy who didn't win a Cup and will never win a Cup.
