Video of the Week: Last Go For Mo?

I know other columnists disagree, but I think this is it. Tonight's the final game in the Stars-studded hockey career of Mike Modano. Horrible season. Getting called out. A team-worst minus-14. Only one goal in his last 34 games. Turning 39 in June. Her waiting at home. Just a gut...

I know other columnists disagree, but I think this is it. Tonight's the final game in the Stars-studded hockey career of Mike Modano.

Horrible season. Getting called out. A team-worst minus-14. Only one goal in his last 34 games. Turning 39 in June. Her waiting at home.

Just a gut feeling.

It's not Wayne Gretzky hanging up his skates, but it could be the last game for the face of Dallas hockey for 15 years and the greatest American-born scorer in the history of the NHL.

Set your TiVo's accordingly, just in case. Stars-Ducks, Channel 21, 9 p.m.

You think he'll be back?
