I agree. The Captain won't retire before the end of the season but I do fully expect him to retire afterwards. You're right, he probably will back out of the Team Canada option but not because he can't play. Too many younger skilled players.

He realizes that he might need a day off here and there. Now I do think he'll back out of playing for Canada especially with so many talented and younger centers fighting for a spot. But that's just my opinion... I would be extremely surprised if Yzerman retired before this season was over. He realizes that he might need a day off here and there.
