Chris Drury Retires

Drury calls it quits after dozen years in NHL

Today Chris Drury called it done after 12 years in the NHL. Capturing the Calder Memorial Trophy in 1999, Drury would lead a hockey career earning a title of clutch player. If you were in the playoffs and needed someone to score this was the man you look to. Drury would play for my boys the Colorado Avalanche until 2002, when the Avs made the worst trade in franchise history. He played for the Flames the for one season, then went to Buffalo the next and regaining his form as a clutch player. After 07 he went to the Rangers only to retire this year. On the side he represented team USA many times 3 Olympics twice a silver metal winner.

He was a man of sick talents, he was a hockey playoff hero and very good leader to. Just wish Colorado never traded him.
