very sad, i wish him the best, the game of hockey needs him.
supposedly they say a lot of his problem may not be concussion related but instead soft tissue damage in his neck that presents symptoms like concussion. If that is correct then he could heal from that and get along fine.

If it really is a concussion then who knows. He could be rolling along, then take an odd hit and be our for good. Lindros is a perfect example.
