NHL Rumors: Jason Spezza threatens to retire

The 37 year-old’s agent, Rick Curran made it very clear that if Spezza is claimed he will, “simply retire.”

Spezza was one of the game’s brightest stars but is more of a role player on the Leafs bottom six and has become expendable. He has averaged 26 points in his last three season and has one assist in three games this season in just 7:44 of TOI.
