Ya, maybe Hossa's case was unique because it wasn't like his back was broken and would never heal... maybe the doctors wouldn't sign off on his "equipment allergy" being a career ending thing and he needs to be re-examined each year for LTIR purposes.

Would make sense... seems like my employer scrutinizes me just as hard when I try to use my "work allergy" to stay home on Fridays.
