Hodgson made a comeback this season, playing 11 games with the Milwaukee Admirals.
Hodgson had to step away from the game at the end of 2015-16 due to malignant hyperthermia, a rare muscle disorder. He came into the NHL as a prospect who could become a legitimate goal-scoring machine, so it came as a shock that Hodgson had to retire at the age of 26.
“I knew in the first period that it was going to be my last game,” Hodgson told Drance in the interview. “I had heat pads all over my body and all over my hands. It was too much. I knew I was done. I knew I wasn’t going to be able to continue.”
