Ryan Suter joins the list of Active NHL players at age 40

[WarriorofTime]

Happy birthday to Ryan Suter as of today, January 21st. Guy who was part of the great Draft 2003 Draft Class, a consistent Top 10 defenseman in his prime, one time Norris Trophy runnerup, 2X U.S. Olympian and even today, still a guy that's out there in 48/48 of his team's games to date.

i dont like people from wisconsin

Hot take, he is much more deserving of his number being retired in Minny than Koivu. Disclaimer: Imo neither should.

From the 2003 draft, Fleury joined in November and Burns and Perry will join in March and May respectively.

Crazy that even with a draft of that quality, only 4 of them will probably make it.

As a man around 40 myself, holy f*** well done. My foot hurt today and there is literally no reason it just hurts.

 

[the valiant effort]

The JAGiest JAG that ever JAGed

Imagine buying out Suter and then signing DUMB f*** BA

I'm only 27 and I'm already feeling so broken down and exhausted. I can't even imagine what being a 40-year-old pro athlete after 1500 NHL games must feel like lol

They’re still putting him out there, but I wouldn’t call it “active.”

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Anybody else have cap hits on 3 different teams right now?

 

[TheOrganist]

He’s been a pleasant surprise for the Blues. Definitely still serviceable as a 3rd pair, PKer.

 

[MNRube]

He’s a dick but had a hell of a career. Doing it for 2 decades is insane.

 

[mab894]

He's been pretty good for the Blues tbh. Solid veteran 3rd pairing guy

 

[FDBluth]

Couldn't have happened to a guy with a nicer dad.

Pretty sure that’s an all-time record
