  12. Brad Richardson — 825
    Nate Thompson — 811
    Jaroslav Halak — 539
  13. Brian Elliott — 502

What do you think? Who is going to hold out the longest and rack up the most total games?
The bolded have not yet won cups. Funny that the top 4 are mainly MIN/SJ guys.

Burns has a 536 game ironman streak right now (+60 PO games in that time)...his body and play-style seem like more of a LTIR threat than Suter. I doubt either will retire early given salaries remaining. Burns is pretty buyout proof, Suter much less so.
