I'd much rather see Kipper play out the rest of the season. Hopefully, the team will do him right and give him a proper send-off in his last game in Calgary. The guy has carried this team on his back for almost 10 years.

How much pay is left for this year? I think he would only be letting go $200,000.
I also hope they give him a good send off, but the flames have to be careful on how they treat this retirement. To many talking heads are demanding an investigation if he retires. It will be very hard to prove, but i still don't want to see it come to an investigation.
