BigWillieStyle 662 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 It must have happened in the Winter Classic. Because anyone not suffering from a head injury would have went and shook hands with the other team.

55fan 5,133 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 On a serious note, it's a good thing they do more about this than they used to. Concussions are not fun. I banged my head pretty good this week and even without a concussion managed to do more than my share of stupid forgetful things. But since it's Sidney, and we can't have a Sidney thread without bashing the poor boy... carry on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah concussions aren't fun, I got hit so hard one time in football that I had a bunch of vertebrae out of place and a concussion. So what we all should really be asking cindy is, what hurts worse?

Vladifan 680 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 Concussion.com has ably explained Crosby's malady. Excessive whining, as in "Wah! Wah!!" actually causes cramps in the jawbone and transmits them to the brain, causing swelling. And yes, it's been proven too that the Ego is a major partner in that ballooning process. It has also been rumored that Steckel knew about Crosby's physical weakness and was only trying to loosen up his jaw muscles. 2 Hockeymom1960 and 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) Anybody else feel that Dave Steckel is maybe in their top 10 fave players at the moment?? Either way, looks incidental to me. Steckel was going for the puck and Skid mark seemed to move right into it. The day he can sport something like this and keep playing, come talk to me: Edited January 8, 2011 by HankthaTank 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 Steve was the man, is the man, was the man. He played in the '02 SCF on half a leg. One knee was s*** and the other was about to go too. I still remember when he took that puck to the face though, because he'd get injured sometimes and you never saw him react to it violently. He would just get off the ice and that was that. This downed him like a felled tree and watching him writhe around and kick on the ice like that was disturbing. 1 Barrie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xitium 272 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) The day he can sport something like this and keep playing, come talk to me: I hate to break it to you, but Stevey did NOT play with a broken Orbital bone. That shot took him out of the rest of the playoffs. The knee thing, sure. the multitudes of other injuries he had and hid until after the season, yes I agree with you. But in this specific case, no.
