No I wasn't aware of this.

Renberg's abdominal muscles tore completely away from the pubic bone. He used to have to be numbed to play. Used to get injections with a giant needle -receiving the shot underneath the scrotum - just to be able to skate. I remember one time Angelo Cataldi got on his case on the air and Al Morganti said "You have no idea what this poor guy is going through just to play." Well, what he was going through with what I just described.

Well I one hundred and ten percent disagree with you because Lindros and LeClair both had injuries of their own and still managed. It wasn't until the late stages of their careers when they began to slow down. I'm not gonna play make belief and wonder what could have happened, I'm saying what did. Renberg still went on to play else where and even had a second chance here. Nothing doing. I believe he left the league and came back. Nothing doing.

It is what it is. End of story.

Okay, what exactly do you guys want me to say? I have no issue with admitting when I'm wrong, which is pretty much the difference between me and most of this board.

Not to mention having his bicep sliced by a motor boat propeller, and nearly having to have a hand amputated after a freak infection.
- bmeltzer

Yup... 200+ stitches between his chin diagonally through his lips and up to his right nostril. Showed up for practice less than 48 hours later. A stunned Terry Murray told him no way he was practicing that day.

Your post that I responded to with the JO comment, I took to be condescending. If I misinterpreted that, then my apologies.

Learn to discuss without throwing around names. I'm assuming we're all adults here.

I think everyone is really ignoring the contributions Mike Maneluk made to the careers of Lindros & LeClair.
