I hear East coast guys don't see many West coast team games. Too bad, because Gagne was as automatic as I have EVER seen anyone be. NOTHING like hearing the first notes of Randy Newman's "I Love L.A." right after Gagne struck out the third batter. I've still got my "GameOver" T shirt with his likeness and goatee/glasses on it. I treasure it.
Too bad and I hope I'm wrong, but I think he's done.

I agree, he looks gassed every time he's out there. He was something else in his salad days. Now?
