South Surrey-raised NHL goaltender Andrew Hammond has called it a career.
The 34-year-old “Hamburglar” announced his retirement from hockey in a screen-shot tweet Monday (Dec. 19), blaming an ankle injury he suffered while playing for Montreal Canadiens last season.
“I won’t be able to make a full recovery,” Hammond posted.
“I’m excited for more time stopping pucks at home with Cal, Carson and Harlow.”
