Despite all of this he plays just a minute less per night than the likes of Toffoli, Lindholm, Dube, and Pelletier at five on five, and well over a minute more than Ruzicka.
After 16 seasons of absolute wear and tear on his body he appears to be done. He had a hell of a run but he can no longer help a team win with his on ice abilities.
Everyone can see it but Sutter.
