That's pretty shitty of the Stars orginization to do to Modano. He's been the staple in that franchise for years

Total classless move by the Stars organization.This guy has done nothing but play his heart out every game for 22 years in the organization,and they don't give him a contract to finish his career in Dallas?What a joke.He's been the face of the franchise forever.He's done incredible things for that organization and the city of Dallas.What a fucking joke.
It's not that they don't want him to end his career in Dallas... it's that the team would probably want him to just retire NOW. But if he doesn't want to, suddenly they're the bad guy for not re-signing him, even though he's over the hill and doesn't fit into the team landscape anymore? Just to be classy, they should sign him for a couple million dollars or whatever it is just to keep him as part of the team?

What if it's five years from now and Modano still wants to play? The Stars should keep signing him as long as he wants to play?
