Logan Couture set to announce his career is over due to injuries

[Mattb124]

Hate to see any player have to hang them up because of injury.

As a fan of an Eastern Conference team, I don't see the Sharks all that much. Prior to googling him after seeing this thread, I could've sworn he was 31-ish, not 36.

Maybe even 39.

Bummer for his career to end that way, he was so clutch in the play-offs for us over the years.

 

[BHD]

Just doing his job.

Sharks should plug up some of them leaks.

Disagree. Other insiders (e.g., Friedman) have shown to be more tactful with how they handle this type of stuff.

 

[jetsforever]

Oh man that sucks, he isn't even that old
Great career though

 

[HabsMD97]

Remember when he claimed he got sucker punched in Toronto for his beliefs?

Highlight of his career to be honest

It’s his groin? The f*** did he do to his groin?

Classless move by Seravalli

What did he do? Reports news?

 

[Cas]

Just to note - it is highly, highly unlikely that Couture will go to LTIR.

He will go to IR for the remainder of his contract, unless his contract is traded to some team.

Heck of a player. Wish him well

 

[Maurice of Orange]

Was hoping Logan could overcome his injury.

Sharks are gonna miss Logan’s prowess and leadership in all facets of the game.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Now that the Coyotes are no more, what team is going to trade for his contract to get up to the cap floor?

 

[HFpapi]

This is a sad one for me. I was living in Ottawa when he was with the 67's so he was always my guy. Can remember clear as day reading his profile in THN '07 draft preview wearing some sort of necklace.

Always one of my fav players.

Sneaky under rated career. 10x 20 goal scorer and 3x 30 goal scorer + good defensively and a playoff beast with a 30 point playoff run to finals in 2016.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

He's a giant f***ing pissbaby, but always a bit under the radar, great player. I am genuinely sad for him that he can't really go out on his own terms, and I admire how hard it seems he worked to find a solution that would allow so.

 

[LemonSauceD]

Good riddance. Dirty ass player got his karma.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Unreal that this guy still makes $8M a year. He's been pretty irrelevant for the last 3 years.

Because he's literally been dealing with a career ending injury for the last 2 year. Big shocker

 

[coooldude]

Good riddance. Dirty ass player got his karma.

... what?

It’s his groin? The f*** did he do to his groin?

Same injury that eventually took out Cheechoo.

Not his groin, it is an issue with the joint between the sides of his pelvis.

Ya, the article posted makes it sound, uh, absolutely awful. Just a reminder for me why, despite all the money, I decided not to join the nhl.

 

[MessierII]

Doesn’t seem like that long ago he was the young guy on the sharks. Time flies.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Tough way to end a career. Hope he can enjoy retirement.

Did it have something to do with none of the talent?

 

[End of Line]

He was an absolute beast in the 2016 playoffs for the Sharks

 

[weaponomega]

I really wanted the Bruins to draft him over Zach Hamill.
