Jay Bouwmeester quietly says goodbye to a terrific NHL career. And he's at peace with it. My interview Monday with the 17-year NHL veteran and Team Canada mainstay:

Re: [Retirement] Jay Bouwmeester
Great defenseman. Nothing special for fantasy, but one hell of a real life Dman.
He's exactly what I hope Philip Broberg turns into in Edmonton.

Good on him - what a list.
One of those big prairie farm-boy defensemen that Canada has supplied for so long.
Buy a cottage in the Muskokas and drinks some pops with the boys in the summer, ice-fishing in the winter.
Best to him in his retirement. He deserves it.
Re: [Retirement] Jay Bouwmeester
He now lives in Canmore, AB (just outside of Banff). He's definitely been known to enjoy a few pops with the boys.Originally Posted by Pengwin7

Hopefully with retirement brings less stress too.
With the move out of Florida brought real appreciation for his talents. What a player.
