NHL news...

Philadelphia Flyers' Ian LePerriere announced his retirement today... LePerriere got hit by a shot of a puck,by Paul Martin,of the New Jersey Devils,two years ago,suffered a concussion,and a fractured orbital bone,in the face,returned after one month,for the Flyers' Stanley Cup run,two years ago,then tried training camp,a year ago,realized that something was wrong("the eye,and head was not right"...),and decided to play out his contract,on long term injury list,for the Flyers,and tried to get better... well,today,he announced his retirement from the NHL... my opinion:he was a Flyer..."despise" the Flyers(laughing)... honestly,i hate when players retire,when things happen to players that are not of their doing,like concussion-related problems,because that really sucks,period... simply said,have a nice life,and enjoy your family,and i really hope that your health improves... you had a very good NHL career... i am going to miss booing you(laughing)... had to make you smile,Ian!!
