Hanging up skates
Wheeler is calling it a career after 16 seasons, telling Dan Leffelaar on the Beyond High Performance podcast, "It's just the emotional, get up 82 times -- I don't want to do that. There's only so much gas in the tank for that," per Paul Friesen of Winnipeg Sun on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Over Wheeler's 16-year career, he spent the bulk of that time (13 seasons) with the Jets organization, racking up 262 goals and 550 assists in 897 regular-season contests. Despite finishing his career with 943 points, plus another 45 postseason points, the Minnesota native received minimal personal or team accolades, finishing with just one All-Star selection.

After playing with the Jets' franchise since the 2009-10 season, Wheeler's tenure with the team ended in an unceremonious buyout. It didn't take him long to find a new home, as he took a near-minimum deal with the Rangers on the first day of free agency. Entering his age-37 season, there are some obvious cracks in the foundation for Wheeler, but he remains a winger capable of taking on top-six minutes while holding his own defensively. He had 16 goals and 39 assists in 72 games last year while picking up 15 power-play points last season, and while his role is likely to be smaller on Broadway, he can still be an effective depth forward in fantasy this year.
