Barkley giving a shoutout to NHL playoff hockey likely didn't hurt either :thumb:
People are tuning in to hear Biz'z hard hitting analysis like

"GAAAAH NOOOOO LEAFS"

and

"IT'S OOOOOOOOOON!"

No, even I wont vote him into the HoF, but Mark was a warrior and is an even better person. Hope he stays around Smashville (Trotz hinted it at it recently)

I did not know he was still playing. Great career.

Got (another) concussion this past October and never came back.

The Preds Foundation auctions stuff off each game, jerseys, sticks, etc. Outside of Josi and Saros, Boro's stuff always went for insanely high prices. He was so popular here, and obviously not for his point production. Fans loved him in Smashville.

Petr Klima sat on the bench for over 2 hours in that 1990 playoff game between the Oilers and Bruins at the old Boston Garden. Muckler decided to throw him out there for a shift in the 3rd OT period I think it was and he pots the GWG.


/Mooger should have had it,

That is tough and the recovery is not easy. And just about guarantees he will have knee replacement surgery when he is older.

What is the recovery after cartilage repair?​

Very generally speaking, patients will spend 1-3 days in the hospital, then use crutches for 8 weeks. They can return to stationary biking at 4-6 weeks, swimming and elliptical trainer at 8-12 weeks, and light jogging at 1 year. Unrestricted activities such as basketball, squash or longer-distance running is permitted after 18 months.

Yikes.

I can't imagine that being something that you ever come back from at NHL level play.
