from TSN,
With a Stanley Cup championship finally under his belt, Pittsburgh Penguins defenceman Philippe Boucher had decided that the time is right to step away from the game…
“I have always admired athletes that have retired as champions and I am humbled to have the chance to count myself among them,” said Boucher. “I would like to take this opportunity to thank my teammates, my coaches and the organizations I played with over the years. I am going to miss being with the boys.”

Good on him for retiring on top. Not many athletes get to do that. I’m sure Letang will miss him, though.
