Im gunna miss pavelski, sharks should have kept him over karlson. That contract deal ruined the team going foward. Pavs will forevor be missed as shark. Captain America!
I am bumbed to hear this
I'll miss him so much! Loved having him on Dallas.
Joe Pavelski – A Real American.
Penguins fans respected his game starting with the 2016 Stanley Cup Final. Congrats Joe!
Next stop PGA?!
Gets hit up high on a predatory hit from Dumba, is out for several games. Comes back, 4 goals. I'll never forget that. I had to go buy a hat between periods to make sure I had one to throw.
I could see the Sedins being able to get and NHL contract at age 41
I was rooting for Dallas to take the Cup just to see Little Joe get his ring. A great player to watch on and off the ice.
If Pavelski doesn't retire as a Shark, then they need to take down Doug Wilson's banner at the SAP Center. The way he got pushed out in favor of Erik Karlsson was embarassing to the franchise.
He needs to get a job in the Sharks front office so if we win a cup then Jumbo, Patty and Pavs will have a day with the cup
Sharks should still offer him 8mil for next year
Sad that pavelski went to dallas. I couldn't appreciate him there where i would have had he played on 1 of 29 other teams.
Making the playoffs all but two years in your career is pretty crazy. It also makes it a bit worse that he never won a cup.
1:24 when is the THG HOF opening in Vancouver?
Absolute Legend! #8 better be hanging in the rafters next to 12 and 19. So bummed!
Pavelski will probably go down as one of the best 7th round picks of all time
This one sucks honestly no cup😔
2016 still hurt, lots of great players so close and now 3 of the greats are retired without a cup, being SJ player or fan is living with a curse
who’d you rather have? justin williams or joe pavelski?
The type of player you hate to play against and the one you love to have on your team. Finally the last player that I remember personally playing against retires…
Pretty good sniper
This guy deserved a cup like Thornton his ex teammate.
Pavelski could definitely come back and play another season or two if he wanted to.. he’s still really good and still putting up 60 points at age 39 this year.
Most playoff goals by an American and almost two decades of production and leadership. Get Captain America in the HOF!!
That San Jose hasn’t made the playoffs since he left shows how valuable he was to them. Shame he retires without the cup.
I'm not a fan of either team he played for, but 1000 points in the era he played is not easy. I remember when 1000 points, unless you did something to embarrass the NHL, made you a shoe-in. He was basically a 70 point player over a full season until he retired. He was the Mike Gartner and Brendan Shanahan of his time. Productive well into his 30s. He belongs in the Hall. Lots of guys are in the HOF who didn't even score 1000 points. The league shouldn't just be for guys who scored multiple 100 point season. They should be for players who represented the best of what the NHL game is about. Pavelski did that.
Huge wing's fan, i remember the wings getting knocked out 2010, 2011 by the SJ sharks and this guy was a Red Wings killer on the ice! But I could not say one bad thing about him and tons of respect. I wish that they won a cup with him in 2016. Sad to see him retire, fantastic two-way player with tons of heart and a deflection king 👑. (Holmstrom was pretty good too 😸)
Huge fan when he was with the Sharks. He was the heart and soul of the team. Sad that he never won a Cup, but going to Dallas gave him probably his best shot at it.
Cup or not, Pav is a winner
awesome. Now do Henry Boucha
His #8 will be raised the rafters of the Shark Tank 🦈🇺🇸
There are bums in the HOF not his equal.
Someone mentioned that Pavs could rest up the first half of next season and then come back fresh and ready for a playoff run. Justin Williams and maybe 1 or 2 other players have done that sort of recently.
that 09-10 sharks roster was absolutely insane
Joe is from my town. Actually have some family relation in common. I remember hanging with him and his brother at some weddings when we were kids back in the day. Always a good guy. Super nice
Captain Joe belongs in the Hall of Fame. A great ambassador, and respect his game.
Yours truly, an LA Kings fan.
Love "Big Joe" saw him many times in the Shark tank. Also "Jumbo" was Thornton, "Big" was Pavelski.✌️🇺🇲
The NHL should add an award for the most valuable player over 35.
The most impressive thing about Joe?
He missed just eight games in his last 13 seasons. Made the playoffs 11 of those 13 seasons. Never missed a playoff game.
11 seasons with 60+ points, 12 seasons with 25+ goals, 6 seasons of 40+ assists.
Like Ovechkin (at times, but Ovi is older), I'd say he's one of those rare players who managed to retain his capabilities into his late 30s.
Honestly, it's unreal how well he played with Dallas.
Gretzky's drop between the Oilers and the Rangers was over 80% (again, at times).
Pavelski's drop between early SJ and Dallas? Zero. He had times with Dallas where he actually seemed to be hitting his stride. At 36-39 🤯
I'm going to call it… Pavs becomes a coach… hopefully for SJ! …with Marleau and Thornton…😈
Until then, I salute you, Capt!
10:42 not to make this about the Leafs but Im pretty sure Matthews is going to break that record in the next 5 or 6 years.
I think he might end up top 3 greatest draft steals of all time..
He should've been on the Stars when they were gifted the Cup in '99.
