Pominville admitted in an interview earlier this month with Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News that his time in the NHL is likely over. "I viewed the odds of [playing a 16th NHL season] happening as very, very, very slim," Pominville said. "I was prepared for it. I wasn't by any means disappointed. Obviously, it would have been nice to get a call from some contender looking for a veteran. But yeah, I was prepared for it to not happen. I can't see myself playing anywhere next year, especially after not playing for over a year. I'm past it and over it. It's definitely been a fun ride."
