If you truly love the game, you won't be able to stay away. while thats great in principle, this will be my 3rd shoulder surgery (2 on the left, first on the right). I'll continue to ref but playing and getting cheap shots that make me miss a good chunk of work just arent worth it anymore. Very disheartening Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chippa13 1844 Report post Posted November 8, 2013 Are these kind of things happening to teammates and/or other guys in the league? If not then perhaps the issue could be how you're playing that is making you a target. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve_v3 289 Report post Posted November 9, 2013 (edited) Frustrating week so far. Had to get admitted to the hospital after undergoing a PTC test. The pain has only now started to calm down a little. It is still hard to take a deep breath & coughing is awful.What I thought would keep me out of work for four days now seems will be closer to a week and a half. Plus I've been stuck inside since I got home from the hospital.I promised to bring my daughter to a college hockey tomorrow so hopefully that will go well. I hope getting out of the house will be good for me. Edited November 9, 2013 by sfdz6_20_07 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I went home to the Toronto area (Barrie, actually) last month. Normally I go during summer or Christmas, but I haven't seen an Ontario autumn since 2005. Sadly, it rained that entire week. But visiting the HHoF and watching NIN in Toronto made it all worth it :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigdmac 12 Report post Posted November 25, 2013 Well after today I think I've switched teams to the people who don't like snow again! Shoveled the driveway 4 times today and we had to push it out of the spot in the driveway to get it going! Took my wife and I and hour and half of prep work before we were able to hit the grocery store! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ideally we'd be in Carlsbad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
