OK lefty, don't mean to drag you into this but I think you have had some close contact to pro hockey.

Do you know of any highly skilled player that miraculously got drafted and then packed it in because he got a big contract.

I can't believe someone who would work so hard to get to the top would then just pack it in for a small percentage of money.

Sorry I've got to do this and call you out dragon.... you done (frank)ed up and contradicted yourself.

See, what happens was that you claimed to be able to treat 100% of that sort of back injury, you also acknowledged that it's not so in every case (by using the word usually). What this means is that there exists a distinct possibility that the injury was quite possibly not the usual one and needed... unusual treatment. Therefore to be able to claim 100 percent recovery, 100 percent of the time is both false and misleading.

100% success in any endeavor, no matter how mundane it is, is mathematically unattainable. Even a simple concept of picking up a piece of paper and moving it one cm to the right is not attainable if the projected number of attempts exceeds one.

I'm assuming of course that you have treated more than one back injury and am therefore valuing you out of your presumption of perfection. It doesn't exist.

Now be a good doctor... No, I mean therapist... and admit that you were wrong... at least drop your number to 99.999999 percent FFS.

Embrace the hate
Fan the flame of anger boiling inside and let it spill out in anger.

I mad assed Mondays!

P.S. you can't treat a torn ligament... I'm a paramedic, they don't Just magically regrow, you can surgically repair them, but it will never ever be 100 percent the same again.

Both medically and mathematically.

Boom... drop the mother (frank)ing mic ... female doges!

no youve misunderstood. The only time a disc is treated differently is if it has a rare positioning that requires a change but subtle change in care.

So no you didnt understand. You sure assume a lot.

And sure ligaments don't just regrow, but it IS amazing how things do repair over time. Seen lots of regrowth in long term cases.
In all likelihood it was a very small spinal ligament as the large ones are very big and extremely strong.
I see no reason to surgically repair a small ligament.

Uhmmm.... Yashin? Got his big pay day and then turned into a floater.

Some players don't love the game and once they've acquired enough wealth they kinda give up on giving it their all.


Isn't it nice with all the hate in here.
No Nuck4U but a while bunch of streaming piles of anger.... feel the burn

- Pres.cup


So 781 points in 850 games (444 assists) is a floater?

What's the benchmark for effort, over a point a game?

Yes he did.
But did he have the same drive and ambition in year twelve as he had in year 2?

Nope, he got a huge contract and started floating out there, this led to him being bought putt for half of what he was owed.

Thus illustrating muy point.

Thanks, I'd high five you and chest bump you to, but I'm too (frank)ing angry to resist pissing in your corn flakes

You mean the difference in energy between a 22 year old and a 34 year old?

That lazy (frank).

Maybe but he has 616 NHL games. Isn't that a lot? 327 points. He lost his passion yes, but he still produced at the NHL level when he played.

What's weird about him is he played for the Wild after taking a couple of years off and still put up decent numbers.

Daigle wasn't just an ordinary guy, he was like the McDavid of back then.

He has admitted to not even really liking hockey all that much, it was just a job.

I just sent him Richard picks, hoping he can tell me what's the deal with the rash.

I hate when people dump on the player for not meeting someone's establish expectations. Expectations that are way too high in the first place. It's even more frustration when impressions contradict stats and confirmed records.

NHL general managers and scouting staff make mistakes when trading and in the draft. Sometimes huge mistakes. They draft a player too high and when that player doesn't live up to their draft placement it's their fault. Poor effort on their part.

Canuck trade and drafting record is atrocious. Not the players fault.

Amazing those two were close to the same size. I always thought Daigle was small but yet McDavid looks huge out there.
