Even he knows he's washed. Only person on earth that doesn't, is Martin Saint-Louis.
Confirmed with Link: David Savard retirement after this season.

LOL, exactly what I was thinking while reading the comments. I was like... am I in the Twilight Zone or something? I'm sure he's a good guy but he's a liability on the ice and I don't see how he helps the team. Leadership I guess.

Someone called it yesterday on the radio because his wife wore a bunch of apparels custom made with memorabilia at the last game
He already has a ring, but he better win the cup this year as well

Of course .We may have gotten him a few years too late but he still gave it his all which at this stage of his career wasn't enough.Even he realizes he's done.

Good guy.......leader, sacrificing his body blocking shots, etc and everyone loves those guys...........that said, man he got slow slow this season......no way is anyone offering him a contract......
I would love to see him stay, in some kind of role with the team.

Not many NHL players can say that they won a Stanley Cup and retired playing with their home grown team.

His icetime was managed. 17:07/game in February, 14:50 in March, 11:54 in April.
See the above. He's been used as a #6-7 for quite a while. Coaching staff knew the end was coming. More reason why he wasn't scratched. You don't scratch a guy playing his last miles, especially one as liked as Savy in the locker room.
For as much as we hate on him....he was a warrior for us. Here's hoping he leaves it all on the ice for the next 20-28 games.

Savard started his career in the 2011-12 season and the Buffalo Sabres never made the playoffs once during his career

The criticism has nothing to do with the person, and everything to do with his play. By his own admission, he’s no longer an effective NHL player.
Doesn’t mean he’s not appreciated for what he brought over the years.

Mr. Objectivity
I'll always have full respect for players that don't cheat on effort and put their bodies on the line. He's a true warrior.
I wouldn't be surprised he refused a trade to a contender to chase one last Cup because he preferred to end his playing career as a Hab.
Happy retirement David Savard.

1993: last season for Savard in Montreal
2025: last season for Savard in Montreal
Is this a sign?

Kinda tired of every retiring player sticking around. It’ll lead to bloat and nepotism.
