Early this summer reports suggested Paul Stastny was leaning towards retirement. However, that is no longer the case. Instead Stastny is looking to play this coming season, but only on one condition.
Friedman added that the 37-year-old doesn't feel he has to prove his worth to a team. Instead Stastny wants a team to give him a guaranteed spot. In 1,145 career games with the Colorado Avalanche, St. Louis Blues, Winnipeg Jets, Vegas Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes, Stastny has 822 points (293 goals, 529 assists), 500 penalty minutes and is a plus-54. He's also contributed 73 points in 118 Stanley Cup Playoff games.
