Farewell to the Captain

While not surprised, I was sad to learn that Steve Yzerman had decided to retire.
I'm new to the world of hockey; a fan for only a few years, however, when I began watching the Wings, it was easy to see who led the team. It will be odd to not see the captain on the ice but at the same time, it's exciting to see what his next step will be. I know they've offered him an office job but, along with almost every other Wings fan out there, I'm hoping to see him in a coaching position.
I can't adequately do the story justice so I've included a link to a great write up on the former captain of the wings... hopefully it works.
