On May 31, 2012, one of the greatest NHL defenceman decided to hang up his skates.

20 seasons in the league, all of which were spent with the Detroit Red Wings.

Four Stanley Cups, Seven Norris Trophies, One Conn Smythe Trophy, One Olympic Gold and Twelve All-Star game appearances.

In his 20 seasons in the NHL, he never missed a single post-season.

1,142 points in 1,564 games with a modest +450 ranking.

Sports Illustrated and Sporting News named him “NHL Player of the Decade”
