Last season while playing with the Philadelphia Flyers Yandle set the NHL Ironman Streak. Yandle set the streak at 989 consecutive games before he was healthy scratched. Unfortunately the record is likely to be broken this season by Phil Kessel.
Over his career Yandle played in 1109 career games with 4 different franchises. Yandle had interest in continuing his career, but he was only able to find professional tryout options at this time. Due to the lack of interest Yandle opted to call it a career.
We wish Keith the best in whatever comes next after his hockey career.
