And I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but even though Pronger is still getting paid (I think), he hasn't played since he was 36. With the type of game he played you can't blame him though.

Not bad for a smallish draft pick that not much was expected from, Seabrook, drafted a year later was the 'Hawks "can't miss" prospect...
Agreed on all counts. Keith is amazing to watch and it seems like hes always out there. Could you imagine a Team Canada with Gio, Keith, Seabrook, Weber, Doughty, etc.?

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
