He hasn't played since being boarded by Bennett a few weeks ago. Long history of concussions and is turning 35. Could Josi hang em up?

Bennett hit:

 
If they haven't provided an update how can a reporter confidently say he even comes back next year?
It says “official update” clearly the reporter has inside info if they can confidently say no official update is forthcoming

Is this like back in the '80s when pro wrestlers threatened to end each other's careers? I'm thinking Roddy Piper and Rick Rude here...

Bennett has somehow managed to escape any consequence from being a dirty POS injuring players. Rempe, Tom Wilson, Kadri, etc can't sneeze without DOPS coming for them.. Meanwhile I've lost count how many players Bennett has seriously injured or concussed and he has no where near the same reputation.

Will be interesting to see if he leaves Florida if suddenly the DOPS pays attention after Gregory Campbell isn't pulling strings with his dad and the NHL anymore.

Crazy that he can just take out a Norris captain like that in a nothing game, with no consequence.
 
Tweet says he won’t play again this season but will be back next year, what makes you think his career is over?

Not over per-se, but concussions are no joke. They robbed the world of essentially the 2 years that would've almost certainly been Crosby's absolute peak years to the point that he thought there was a chance he'd never play hockey again.

That was a 24-26 year old Crosby, we're talking about a 35 year old Josi who has a more extensive concussion history than Crosby did at the time. 1 concussion could be devastating - it significantly altered the career of Daniel Sedin after he got elbowed in the head by Duncan Keith, was never remotely the same goal scorer as he was before.

yeah just seems kind of clickbait-y to me to throw that in the title when it’s 100% speculation on the part of OP.

And not to downplay the seriousness of concussions, but Crosby’s recovery was significantly prolonged by an undiagnosed neck injury. Pens fired their entire medical staff the summer after that came to light.

The neck injury was after the Krejci hit iirc, nothing to do with the Winter Classic hit and the Hedman hit (and even then Crosby did suffer a concussion on the Krejci hit)
 
man that looks like it could be anything from a concussion to a neck/spinal injury...

sure hope Josi can live a decent life moving forward.

concussions are no joke, had many prior to them being diagnosable by Doctors.

I would say 4-6 in football, 1 in hockey and another in Boxing.
 
Lmao buddy Bennett isn't tough, he's skinny fat :laugh: and he runs away like a little bitch every time he has to fight someone.

Unless he's throwing punches before the other guy has a chance to drop the gloves, then he's real tough. Or if he's hitting guys from behind.

Just a matter of time until someone takes matters into their own hands and gives him a taste of what he likes to dish out. Biggest piece of shit in the league since Matt Cooke.
Bennet when he first came into the league was a Tasmanian devil he would run over and hit everything..loved watching him play his early Calgary years and still plays hard as nail..he is the definition of tough you are wrong. He’s tough and dirty especially pound for pound has always laid people out.

Yeah saying Bennett isn't tough is just hilarious. Didn't he absolutely destroy Max Domi? Maybe that's why.
