text: if you ever got hurt playing hockey, would you quit playing? like if someone pushed you into the boards and ramed your shoulder and broke. once you got better, would you continue playing hockey? been hurt.  get hurt all the time.  rehabbing a broken foot sucked only because it took so long; i was off the ice for three months and just about went around the bend.  actually the worst was getting whiplashed in a fight.  took less time to heal, but it made me gunshy for a while.  less inclined to scrap, which is bad.  i think depending on the injury sometimes you have to get your nerve back along with everything else, but i'd never give up hockey, ever.
