[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 2556346, member: 2012"] [b]Sniper retires, becomes marketeer...[/b] [COLOR=DarkOrange][B]MacInnis retires, joins Blues' front office[/B][/COLOR] [B]Canadian Press[/B] 9/9/2005 3:51:19 PM [B]ST. LOUIS (CP) - St. Louis Blues defenceman Al MacInnis announced his retirement from the NHL on Friday after a 23-year career.[/B] The hockey club said MacInnis will remain in the organization in a hockey operations and marketing capacity. "Like that of all players, Al's career has unfortunately and finally come to an end," Blues general manager Larry Pleau said in a statement. "However, it gives us great satisfaction to know that his unparalleled expertise and experience will continue to benefit the Blues as he accepts a new position on our staff." MacInnis, 42, was the second perennial all-star defenceman to retire this week after New Jersey's Scott Stevens called it a career Tuesday. Centre Vincent Damphousse retired on Wednesday. MacInnis, from Port Hood, N.S., hasn't played since October 2003. He suffered a serious eye injury during a game early in that season. Doctors discovered a partially detached retina and performed surgery. The detached retina was in the same eye that MacInnis injured in January 2001 when he was struck in the eye by a stick. MacInnis, who won the Norris Trophy as the league's top defenceman in 1999, led all NHL defencemen in scoring in 2002-03 with 68 points (16-52) in 80 games as well as posting a plus-22 rating. He finished second in Norris voting to Detroit's Nicklas Lidstrom. MacInnis, a gold medal winner with Canada's Olympic team in Salt Lake City, has 340 goals and 934 assists in 1,416 career regular-season games and has played in 12 NHL all-star games. His 1,274 career points ranks him 29th all-time and third among defenceman behind Ray Bourque (1,579) and Paul Coffey (1,531). MacInnis was drafted 15th overall by Calgary in 1981. He won a Stanley Cup with the Flames in 1989 and also the Conn Smythe Trophy as the post-season's top player. [/QUOTE]
