-He had a back injury in his first season with the Avs which derailed things for him getting demoted to the AHL.
-Felt he had a good offseason and came to camp realizing he wasn't in the Avs plans and was sent to San Antonio. His 4th game of the season an innocent collision left him with a headache and he played the next game feeling good but after that it was all downhill as sitting on the couch the TV would start moving and he would get vertigo, etc.
-Visited concussion specialists and went to a special institute and things were looking up as he started feeling better feeling he could get his career on track.
-As a free agent he trained hard in the summer but deeper into the summer his symptoms started coming back worse and worse so he decided to pack it in and just focus on being healthy again.
-He's got his life back now and can do light exercise.
-He's now exploring options for the nest stage of his career.
