I survived a nearly fatal hockey injury (which also nearly left me paralyzed and brain damaged (so the doctors initially though)) only to return to the game some 6 months later during the provincial playoffs. About 3000 people from my home town showed up and a few people even planned this ridiculous event where my entrance onto the ice was announced and the whole crowd and both teams gave me a huge standing ovation. Ray Ferraro was apparently asked to drop the puck and yadda yadda but it never happened. Dunno about that one. But yeah, I just about died and still managed to play hockey.
