With hindsight we know it was awkward to call. But at the time it was an insane hit, I wouldn’t be surprised if the announcer got excited about a huge hit like that in the moment.
Honestly one of the saddest videos there is, these are guys who have spent their entire lives grinding up to this moment just for it to be snapped away in the blink of in eye. Can’t imagine how impossibly difficult it has to be to deal with that.
On the other hand, these guys achieved their dream. Thousands and thousands of people work just has hard to be stuck in the minors for years barely scraping by. They made it to the show.
It's a reminder why the league should probably have financial advisors for every team to make sure the players are making the best use of the money they have, because you never know when your career could suddenly end from a freak stroke of bad luck. Sad to see how some former players are really struggling financially and mentally post-career
The one that bothers me the most is Steve Moore. That whole incident could have so easily been avoided if the Dan Marouelli had been bothered to rule the hit against Naslund a bad hit, or if the league had bothered to investigate it better and sanctioned Moore for it. Their lack of action against Moore for what was dubbed at the time "headhunting" is what got so many Canucks players so mad, resulting in a proverbial bounty being put out against Moore. Less than a month after the upheld bad call, Moore was targeted by Bertuzzi, who drove him face-first into the ice, fracturing 3 cervical vertebrae. Dude literally broke Moore's neck because Moore caused Naslund to chip a bone in his elbow.
that does not equate to a cheapshot that breaks his neck and makes him have to never play in the NHL ever again. There is no justifying how awful that was.@@gripnsip3000

@emma6648 very true. I watched the accident a day ago when it was released and it was honestly scary and sad to watch. I can only imagine what he was thinking during that time
You don't have to be a Pens fans to be sorry about hearing someone pass away. I don't even know why you felt the need to add that. Being a sports fan of a sports team doesn't have to turn you into a heartless thug.
@BroccoliLesnar because I wanted to state that even though I'm not a fan of theirs personally I still keep up to date with what's going on in the hockey world. Some people don't.

Moore actually got a concussion along side the neck injury. The concussion symptoms is what caused him to not play again. Contrary to what was said, Moore's neck didn't break, but he did suffer three fractured neck vertebrae.

I hope they don't go through what Franzen is dealing with right now. I saw his interview after his career ended. I really fell so bad for him. No matter how badly you hate that team or that player, they are also a normal person with a different role like husband, dad, etc at the end of the day.
Pronger returned from his eye injury for a few games; the hit that (likely) ended his career was Hanzal (he played one more game afterwards vs WPG and was out for good)
Yes, technically it was post concussion syndrome that ended his career. He did suffer some vision impairment from the eye injury though, so really it was both.
a lot of these concussions were 'straw that broke the camel's back' situations, either because it was their 5th concussion or they were near end of their careers anyway.
thats how concussions work. One concussion often leads to another, to another, the damage is done and then one day even a small impact is all that is needed. Especially with older players when the usual "cure" was to walk it off, clear your head and be ready for the next shift. I´m glad that today the league gives players time to heal, but there is no real healing from a concussion
I was at that 2015 Game 3 where Lubomir Visnovsky had his career ended by Tom Wilson, that hit will forever be viscious and the fact that Wilson never got a suspension for it is frustrating
And there are players like Richard Zednik and Clint Malarchuk who had their throat cut with skates and yet still made a comeback. Hockey players are so fukking tough.
The one at 3:02 really bothers me because you can literally hear the room go quiet besides his screams of pain echoing… just an awful way to have your career ended
its sad that there are plenty of commentators of the game that recognize an emergency, and then there are those that just want to cheer for the home team no matter what. you know who im talking about.
Goulet still had a few years left in him before the injury. He was wearing a thin Jofa 235-51 helmet and hit the Montreal Forum boards, which had concrete blocks behind them for structural support. Great Nordiques player traded to Chicago for three guys that did not amount to much at all.
@@jacksonbarry5407 Stammer came back and was still a good player but he was never a top 5 player ever again. I think Dach being a consistent 50-60 points guy is being optimistic. If not for the injury I think he couldve had 70-80 points in his prime
Crazy how many of these are eye injuries or concussions where the players face hits the boards. I know people don’t want to hear it but there is no reason the NHL shouldn’t switch over to full cages or bubbles.
If you ever do this video again you should add Daymond Langkow's neck injury from back in 2010. Langkow took a slapshot off the neck from teammate Ian White resulting in a broken neck. He did eventually come back for 4 games at the end of the following season and played 73 games for the Coyotes the season after that before retiring.
I still remember seeing that Trent McCleary one where he took the slap shot to the throat. I was a goalie (beer league) at that time and I took a shot about a quarter of an inch to the side of my larynx. Scared the shit outta me
im not big on hockey so corecxt me if im wrong but a lot of these hits/checks seem to come well after the puck is gone. How is any of this warranted or legal?
I think u have like 3 4 seconds after u pass the puck someone can hit u, after that u can get a penalty. they’re just following through on their hits. I could be wrong tho.
the ref putting his arm up after he knew borowiecki wasn't getting up is purely ridiculous. Obvi want the best for players but not a pen and ref waited
The hit that really ended Savard's career was Matt Cooke, but fair enough to have the hit that I think gave him the original injury that he tried to play through
Hockey is the one sport where i absolutely would get the most protection i can. I would never play without a cage protection helmet. Or without neck-cut-protection of any kind. I seriously do not care about gear when I'm freestyle skating, because the worst that'll usually happen is some bone breaking and or bruises, unless you're very uncareful. But of course even when just regular skating you can kill yourself in some ways. But hockey? I take all precautions there because you can easily get injured by others.
I know wasn’t a career ended technically but I remember watching Calvert take a puck to the head again the Canucks in 2019 and he was never the same after that game.

I used an interview he had as reference. I’m not 100% for sure, but it seemed like his neck wasn’t the factor for his career ending injury. He said he was still getting post-concussion syndrome affects as of today.
Pronger could have easily played for another 4-5 years if it wasnt for rhe injury. He was a freakzoid. In my very biased opinion i think the Flyers could have made it back to another cup final if he stayed healthy.
Its too bad they havent invented equipment that protects a players face reducing these career ending injuries. Maybe like a cage or visor that screws into your helmet so that when a stick or puck comes up, it hits the cage instead of the persons face. Hopefully someone invents something soon!
I don't really watch or understand hockey but I don't understand why those players are so brutal and literally smash their opponents into barriers - that is lirterally life-threatning. Shouldn't NHL put players' life and health first and severely punish those more brutal players? Like I said, I don't understand hockey so I'm happy to hear someone's opinion on that. To me, this brutality just seems pointless.
In football, an upper body shot can lead to a possible ejection. Football also have a helmet piece for the front of the face. Why is hockey any different? Yes, some of the videos are older and I hope changes have happened. Why does something major have to happen for changes to be made? Please be kind, I don't follow hockey.
4:46 straight up looks like murder. I know people say fighting is a part of the sport but I feel they need to have some sort of rule to prevent things like that happening again. It feels like people aint thinking about the consequences, just look what happened to Derek Boogaard.
This was mostly older players who were near the end of their careers or had a lot of previous concussions. If I was in the NHL and considering retirement in a few years and got a severe concussion I would probably just say I’m done and play mens league
Imagine taking a career ending injury and having the announcer's call be "Sauer is gonna be rather sour about that hit!"
