Love, Wanker

Dear London fans,

 

It's been a blast, playing in front of you for the last almost 4 years. I admit I was anxious coming here from Vancouver, especially with my name. I was afraid you would take it as me mocking briish english, but you made me feel right at home.

 

But whether we like it or not, all things must come to an end. I am sad to inform you this is the last season I'm wearing Union Jack colours. I feel I can no longer play on the level I should play to justify competing in the VHL, and after careful consideration and counseling with my teammates and team management, my family, my physicians and my agent, I have decided to officially retire from professional hockey, once the current season wraps up. It's time for me to move to another stage of my life.

 

I know I am not the only player, or even the best or the most liked United player to retire after this season. There are huge changes coming in the United organisation, and I encourage you to stay faithful to the team through the few upcoming lean years. Trust the process.

 

But right now, my eyes are set on the biggest prize, just like yours. Let's all focus our attention on the remainder of the season, especially on the postseason, where I will play like it is my last chance to win - because it literally is. I can promise you that much.

 

Love,

 

Wann Kerr
