Pierre Turgeon has decided to retire from the NHL. He was the Buffalo Sabres round 1 #1 overall pick in the 1987 NHL Entry Draft, and he stayed there through the 1991-1992 season. He's leaving the Avalanche after scoring 515 goals and 1327 points in an outstanding NHL career. He currently stands tied for 27th all-time in points in the NHL.
And speaking of #1 picks...where do you think Buffalo native Patrick Kane's going to be skating next?
