Im in awe of what he has gone through. Had no idea the cut affected him that much. That he survived shooting himself. its incredible. and he still struggles everyday.

It sounds like he has a really tough time. Amazing he is not dead or severely damaged.

i remember the day he got cut. it was nothing ever seen before. and that picture in the article is like from a movie.

I saw a guy get cut on ice in our league. right across the throat. saw it open. saw things I have never seen before. no excessive blood except from the actual cut but it was so fucking close to the jugular. his teammate took him to the hospital and drove his car in his skates. full equipment the both of them. he was fine we played him the next season and all gave him a pretty good welcome back. huge scar like Clint but not the same severity.

really mind blowing.

That was pretty well circulated 'round these parts. He was employed by the Jackets for a while. He's still real popular here.

Hope he has gotten it together. Depression is pure hell. Add in the trauma he faced, and it's unimaginable.
