on Monday night that he will forgo the NHL restart in order to continue his recovery from concussions.
The 28-year-old has previously said he doesn’t know how many concussions he has had in his career, but he figures it’s at least three or four. I’ve learned a lot about concussions and head injuries a lot over the past few years thanks to the Blackhawks medical staff of Dr. Mike Terry, Mike Gapski, Jeff Thomas and Patrick Becker.
