Popular Post -dlc- Posted November 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2023 Damn, that's rough. Weird timing to read this....I had a sleepless night last night due to deep pain in my leg. Many years ago I stepped in a foot size hole in pavement and went down, hard. Twisted my knee. Awhile later I was playing basketball with my kids and heard a pop....more pain. Never really followed up....my doctor retired and I was in limbo for awhile without one. So I just suffered through it. Now that I read stuff like this, I think maybe it's time to find out what's going on. (Pain has radiated from my knee...both up to my thigh and down to my shin). I like Carey and am happy to hear it wasn't other stuff that forced the decision. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VforVasili Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Off that's awful. Dealing with a meniscus tear right now and that is awful enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Hoping the Doc had Carey's permission to talk about his medical issue. Guy is retired, so it might have been considered confidential at this point. He was a damn good goalie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point living through pain and sacrificing sleep if you don’t have to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kragar Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Kinda like Bobby Orr. That's so rough, but hopefully he got out before doing too much harm. A friend of my mom's is a huge fan of CP. There's been a couple times when we've been together at some event, and she would show me some selfie or another that she had with CP, and would say... "you know hockey, who's this guy?" I'd always troll and say it was Burrows 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 He will need a knee replacement at some point, he is too young to get one now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Hall of Fame career that could have gone on for at least a few more very productive years, if not for an injury.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insane to think both he and Weber played that hurt on their cup run 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that makes his career truly amazing is that the family moved to Anahim Lake when he was three years old. His dad (a former pro goalie as well, although he never made the NHL) taught him to play on frozen lakes/creeks. To play organized hockey, they had to make a 5 hour drive to Williams Lake. It got to be so time consuming, his dad eventually bought a small plane to fly him to games and practices. Truly an incredible success story.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
