I saw him play a ton and yet I don't think they should retire the number - at least until he goes a few years without saying something stupid.
And he didn't deserve to get a spot on that team. He was too slow. Spots aren't handed out for emotional reasons or to placate the fans.
He wasn't good enough, despite his "historical" (his words not mine) pre-season shootout goal.
