    All around good dude who had a great career on the ice. I agree he should stay active on Twitter, one of the rare players who showed a lot of personality off the ice.

    He will probably end up in a studio somewhere. My guess is TSN has already contacted him about their July 1 free agent frenzy day.

    He's definitely going to be on TV from time to time. Maybe not full-time but he'd be great on the "big events" that usually end up being more hype than substance. His humor would be fantastic while we're waiting 4-5 hours for the first deadline deal.

    Not to mention I'm sure he will be a source for many great stories. Would be a great fit on tv.

    After earning $93 million, my guess is Lou just doesn't care about the $3.6 million.

    Money isn't everything. Just ask Patrik Berglund.

    Luo better work the All-Star Game if he's up for it. Bieksa sucked when he did it.

    You wonder what the future would be like if Vancouver had just played him in that outdoor game

    Frank Servalli tweeted his understanding is Florida encouraged Luo to retire vs LTIR because 1mill to them is easier to manage than 5+mill on LTIR.
