Dang. I'm sorry to hear that. I really liked him on the Sharks and still wish he was playing for us.

Best of luck to Manny. Tough blow for the Nucks but that's a very distant 2nd to his health.

read about this miracle of modern medicine saturday ... hopefully things work out for Manny

There is no such thing as a minor vision problem and the last Canuck who suffered a serious eye injury — defenceman Mattias Ohlund in a similar incident during a 1999 pre-season game — missed large chunks of two seasons and never recovered full peripheral vision in his right eye.


Ohlund, however, continues his long and lucrative National Hockey League with a valve surgically implanted below his damaged eye to draw away fluid and regulate pressure.

I hope some (most) of the Twitter rumours are false regarding Manny's eye and subsequent procedures. Best of luck, Manny.

/Maybe it's time to make visors mandatory (or at least grandfather them in)?

Eye injuries can be bad.

I remember the game when Barry Ashbee got hit. He was never able to recover.


The TV broadcast had a reporter broadcast from on the ice...

Is that how Willie O'Ree lost eyesight in one eye? Or was that something else?

That sucks, Manny is a good guy.

I agree, I've been a proponent of this for awhile. There's really no reason not to make everyone who comes into the league next season wear them. Visors or face shields are a requirement in both college and juniors so it's not like the players aren't used to them.
