It doesn't make it a rumour either. It makes it a sourced statement, and from the strongest possible source — Kiprusoff himself.

It may perhaps have escaped your notice that 'retiring' is not the same thing as 'filing formal retirement papers with the NHL'. A player can retire from playing hockey without ever filing papers. Retiring is a matter of not playing anymore. Filing papers is a matter of contract and pension status.
