Zdeno Chara retires from the NHL
Chara on Instagram: “After 25 seasons of professional hockey 1,680 NHL regular season games, 200 Stanley Cup Playoff games, and hundreds of international games I am proud to announce my decision to retire from the National Hockey League. In doing so, I am honored to return to TD Garden today to sign a one-day contract with the Boston Bruins and officially finish my career with the team that has meant so much to me and my family. There are so many people that have helped contribute to my success, including all of you, and I look forward to properly thanking everyone this afternoon.
Sportsnet: Some career numbers.
Norris Trophy (2008-09)

Evan Rawal: “Zdeno Chara was such a unique player, so much so that teams spent nearly two decades trying to find their own Chara. He was one of a kind, though. Ottawa lost themselves a Stanley Cup by choosing Redden over Chara when both became UFA’s. Boston hit the jackpot.”
