Wow. We can't agree on which Hip album is the best, we can't agree that KISS is the lamest band ever, and we can't agree on teachers, but we can all agree that Brett won't be missed.
I met him once when he was still a St. Louis Blue and he was nice enough. Nowhere near the prick that Alan Bester was. That being said, he was one of the two players that I refused to take in any hockey pool ever, the other being Pavel Bure.
The funny thing is that despite all of his accomplishments, did you ever hear anyone buy a ticket to see Brett play? I mean his brand of offense - float around until the other team forgets you and then get a one-timer, wasn't exactly the most exciting thing about the sport.
His constant bitching and whining about the NHL was annoying. Call me crazy, but as a player shouldn't you be selling the game and trying to convince fans to come out rather than try to drive them away?!?
Goodbye Brett. Don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.
