Gary Roberts Announces Retirement

1986-2009


1224 Games played, 438 goals, 472 assists, 910 Points. 1 Stanley Cup championship, +229 overall.

With a NHL career that spanned 23 years and 6 franchises including a four-year stint with his hometown team the Toronto Maple Leafs, Gary Roberts was a remarkable player. A power forward who wasnt afraid to use the body and still put up solid numbers, a veteran player who was a mentor to some of the NHL's current superstars and an overall excellent team leader.

He ended his NHL career where it began, in Calgary on March 1st.

Enjoy your retirement Mr. Roberts, now can you please convince CuJo to follow suit?
