It's the end of the road for Mike Sillinger in the NHL, as today he'll announce his retirement. Sillinger has been battling some serious hip problems, which included a pair of surgeries over the past couple seasons. So, at age 38, it should come as no surprise that a player with those kind of health problems will call it a career, since the rehab for a hip injury is quite intense.In his NHL career, Sillinger played in 1,049 games, scoring 240 goals and 308 assists. His career-best season came in 2006-'07, where he scored 26 goals and 33 assists for the Islanders.
