    The truest example of « gentleman of the game ».

    Jim Nill and Mike Greer about to be fighting over him like divorced parents lol.

    Seems like the perfect candidate for transitioning into management

    The end of an era. Hard to believe that Marleau, Thornton, **and** Pavelski have all retired now. It felt like they would be playing in the league forever

    So much respect for Joe. A low draft pick that worked his arse off to make it. Sad that he didn’t win his Stanley Cup, but a hell of a career.

    God I still can’t accept that he’s gone.

    He truly was The Guy.

    So, Dallas, we all gonna get some drinks tonight for our boy?

    I saw someone online the other day saying if he had won the Cup in both San Jose and Dallas that he would be a lock for the Hall of Fame. Seemed weird to me. An individual player can’t win a Cup on his own, very much a team accomplishment. And when you think about it…Pavs made it to Game 6 of the SCF with both franchises.

    A couple more wins there and he goes from fringe chance to solid lock? I don’t think Cup wins should be such a big contributing factor, but I’m a Sharks fan so I just hope he gets in.

    anyone got a link to a mash up of some of pavelski’s masterful redirecting/deflection goals? always loved watching him play and catching him doing that!

    THAT IS MY CAPTAIN 🇺🇸
    love that dude, wish him the best

    Stick taps.

    Guy was an Avs killer, but nothing but respect.

    That G7 comeback against Vegas… I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a team rally behind a guy that hard, speaks volumes to who Joe is

    I always respected Joe because he seemed to be more than the sum of his skills. He wasn’t the best skater, shooter, etc. but he found ways to get the work done by hard work and determination. As a stars fan, I always felt like Joe was a shark through and through and we were just getting the tail end of his career, but after a tough first year he really contributed a lot and sharks fans may hate it but I came to really feel like he was a star and he never rested on just providing leadership. He could play right ’til the end. I know I’m rambling, but yeah, Pavs was a stud and both franchises will miss him.

    So well said and articulated. stick taps for pavs!

    This man deserved a Cup like no one else

    One of the great American players. Even though he was always in the west competing against the Blues, it’s sad to see him not lift the cup.

  19. NizzySP

    I was so convinced Dallas was going to win the West this year. Brutal 1st & 2nd rounds.

    There are players that have their name on the Stanley Cup that are not very well respected for whatever reason . . .length of career and/or the play on the ice or just not nice people. Then there is Joe Pavelski, a guy that doesn’t have his name on the Cup, yet is almost universally admired and respected. He is the role model of what a player/captain should be and he gave the NHL all he could give.

    “I guess the theme is, my career was made better not by individual achievements, but by all the people who I got to share it with.” – Joe Pavelski with incredible perspective.

    Great player, better person.
