Marc Savard: Officially retires
Marc Savard retired from the NHL on Monday, Joe Haggerty of NBC Sports Boston reports.The 40-year-old has been out of the league for seven years but is now officially hanging up the skates. Savard's career was unfortunately cut short due to several concussion-related injuries. The Ontario native was able to play 13 seasons in the NHL with four different teams, though, totaling 706 points (207 goals, 499 assists) in 807 games -- while hoisting the Stanley Cup with Boston in 2010-2011. On a bright note for Savard, many of his concussion-related symptoms have lessened or vanished after his playing career, and he's reportedly looking into coaching to continue his passion for hockey.
