Also worth remembering that Ryan Clark has some real first hand experience, he nearly died from a ruptured spleen playing at Mile High cause he has sickle cell.

The most gnarly thing about the Clint Malarchuck thing is that he skated off under his own power and said afterward something to the effect of "I didn't want my mother to watch me die on the ice"

Adrenaline is a hell of a drug.

Another blast from the past: The guy who rescued "Baby Jessica" from the well ended up getting PTSD & other mental health problems from the incident, and later committed suicide. This even though Baby Jessica herself suffered no long-term physical effects from her fall down the well - she's a married Special Ed teacher with kids. Just the pressure of the rescue itself had an enormous affect on the guy who did it.

Just being around physical trauma or high-stakes situations like that can really mess a person up.

I read an article about Malarchuck because of this thread, he's ok now and did the whole 'Become a born again Christian with a book and a speaking tour" thing but he only got diagnosed with PTSD because he shot himself in the head and somehow survived that as well, and that's what got him to the right therapist

I accidentally watched a replay of Steven Stamkos catching an edge and smashing his shin against the goal post. That was the bad one for me. No more gross replays
