Yawney was a pretty decent defenceman when he came to Calgary, but he spoiled it with a real bonehead moment. During fitness testing in training camp, he put too much weight on one of the machines (to show off how strong he was) and ripped a pectoral muscle right off its insertion. The thing rolled up in his chest like a tennis ball and had to be surgically reattached. He missed a big chunk of the season, as I recall, and was never really the same afterwards.
