It has been ten years since the Steckel on Crosby hit.

[Voight]

He played nine seasons and never hit double-digit goals. That's about six more seasons than he should have had with his "talent". Took out the best player in the league almost ending his career with a head shot. And you feel sorry for him?

"took out" implies it was intentional, which it was not.

Never got how Crosby didn't get 2 min for interference for that

Steckel was totally lying when he said he didn't "see" him. He's two strides behind Crosby who is directly in front of him.

It was a damn shame. Crosby had finally after 3 years regained his skating form he had before his ankle sprain. Everything was coming natural like he didnt even have to think. Pure dominance out there. He came back amazing still the best player in the world 13-17. But was never played the same. In a way his career reminds one of Muhammad Ali. Banned from boxing at his absolute peak 67-70 comes back still carves out a fantastic career. But was never the same and we never saw a peak Ali

Yea losing the best player in the league for the better part of two years led to significant rule changes. Concussion protocol didn't even exist before this.

Didn't this turn out to be a soft tissue neck injury that caused concussion like symptoms?
