Yeah, pretty awesome, especially considering 3 of them played some or all of their careers for the Red Wings. More stoked about Yzerman than any of them, though really, because, lets face it, whether you liked the guy or you don't you have to admit he worked his ass off at all times during games and that is a huge part, besides Mike Vernon and Chris Osgood in 1997 & 1998 that allowed us to win those back-to-back Stanley Cups.

Frankly though, the one guy who I'm still modestly shocked is still around would be Chris Chelios. I mean the guy is going on, what, like 48, and he's still oh so awesome. However, I wouldn't be surprised, or upset with him, if he decided to retire soon, because, I mean he will probably be able to do something with his "Cheli's Chili" or whatever in downtown Detroit when he finally does.
