An open letter to Chris Osgood.

Chris,

Enjoy your retirement and best wishes.

You shouldn't give a fuck about the Hockey Hall of Fame. You should not care if they choose to induct you or not.

You've got nothing to prove - to anyone.

And you've won the game's ultimate prize - three times, across different decades in two different stints.

That says a lot about you, not the team(s) you played for. You provided a lot of entertainment to a lot of fans, and your playing was invaluable to your's (and your teams') successes.

Thank you. The game will be a much lesser one without you.
