Do what you think is best for yourself, not for others. I've been hit in the mask with a slap shot deflection. I didn't even have the time to move or put my hand up to block it. The mask was an Itech full shield. I was able to remove the puck mark. That was temporary. Taking a puck to the face would have been permanent.

Not a dick move, but I don't know why the ref would let a player dictate when the clock gets run out. The ref should have had the face-off with 6 seconds left and let the players on either team dictate how aggressive or not-aggressive they play after the face-off.

There's a physical therapy business I've been to in the past: shoulder, leg, hip stuff. I'm like a repeat customer.

The surgery was successful, i.e. I didn't die, and my feet and legs work. I do have a lot of pain at the surgical site.

Thanks for responding. My lower back pain/sciatica symptoms are slowly getting worse. It started with tightness in glutes and hamstrings, chronic. Now, I get tingling down the right leg, and/or right foot. Sometimes I can jog a bit without any issues, like to cross the street faster because a car is coming, and sometimes, that short 5 step jog to the sidewalk is very painful. Sometimes, my right foot is dragging, when I start to walk, involuntarily. During one game, my right leg was also dragging while skating forward. I've had various surgeries and orthopedic surgeries, ACL reconstruction, shoulder labrum repair, hip arthroscopy. This would be my first spinal surgery. I'm a bit worried, but am also putting my faith in God to not worry. My mom has sciatica and had back surgery. Didn't increase the pain, but didn't decrease it, and laminectomy was performed. No fusion.

Hi, yeah so my body is breaking down. I had hip arthroscopy earlier this year and I thought that was related to my back pain. After I recovered from my hip surgery, the back pain came back. I told my doctor about it at a check up and he said it was possible sciatica. I go to a neurologist, he orders an x-ray and MRI. I looked at the images and one of the vertebrae isn't aligned. 🤕 Lumbar region, L3 and L4. So that was causing nerves to get touched. I'm getting surgery soon. Anyone get this done and go back to hockey or did you just hang up the gloves?

I live a boring life. No lie. I'm sorry. 🤣

Anything from 2 to 44 unless your goalie has a high 20s/low 30's already taken. It's not rocket science.
