Dean McAmmond Concussed Again

Dean McAmmond was carted off the ice again tonight after a vicious hit by Steve Downie left him face down on the ice.

There is no doubt the hit was ill-intentioned (Downie was plastered earlier in the shift) and it shows blatant disregard for player safety. If anyone says "McAmmond should keep his head up.", then you're not grounded in reality. How many players do people need to see face down and motionless to realize it's a problem?

After Brian McGrattan's post-game comments, I just hope nothing even more stupid happens the next time these teams meet. If Downie is still on the roster.

Bob McKenzie weighs in with an excellent post. Click here to read it.



Please Dean, just retire.
