2 hip surgeries where he has had, and will continue to have to, adapt how he skates. Back surgery which also hampered his ability to move around the ice and wrist surgery which has hurt his shot and passing.
Surgeries to repair such injuries can return a person to a normal somewhat pain free life if it were you or I. An elite athlete though? It ruins that. There is no getting back to what he once was or what he once had.
