Fine, I'll be the only one to say just stop. Give Davis a coaching job or put him in the front office or enter acting with marking, don't let that man go out the a ruin his knee till it isn't fixable again. How many times can it pop before the tendens just had enough. That knee isn't going to be worth poo when he gets oldder in a couple yrs. Most people with bad knee complain when its cold or it rains, Davis knee will freeze up if you drop a glass of water on it

I don't think he will be in THAT bad shape after his career is over. He has torn the ligament three times. They keep fixing it up and letting it heal. How could that be worse than a guy that pops it off completely the first time and continues to play for 8 years? The guy hasn't taken many licks in the last 3-4 years. I would be much more worried about the guys getting their heads beat in.

It's not a tendon, it's a ligament, and it's not the same ligament each time. When you have a complete ACL tear, they remove that ACL, then take something from somewhere else in your body (middle third of your patella tendon, part of your hamstring, etc.) or a tendon from someone else (not as reliable) and put it in place of your ACL. Amazingly, your body can take something like a tendon, recognize that it's not supposed to be there, break it down, and turn it into a ligament. Then, what used to be a tendon or muscle can turn into a new ACL.

I did tear up a bit when TD got hurt against GB this year. Yeah I'm a bitch, but TD does things the right way and if he can't play anymore its a damn shame because he is everything that a professional athlete should be, but too often the others are not

      Nina King continues to run circles around the rest of college basketball. She's been ahead of the curve on everything, and is the biggest reason for Duke's success post-K IMO. I think Scheyer is great at many things, but Duke went into the NIL era 100% ready whereas everyone else was playing catchup.

      Happy they won convincingly instead of letting them hang around. Montreal is cooked, and rather than play hockey, they've decided to take some really cheap shots at guys. I get a player may feel a need to set the tone, and I understand how that works. But to 2-hand cross check someone intentionally in the face, to have a guy down on the ice and put his head into the ice with a stick, to just start punching anyone who gets within arm's reach- that's not setting the tone. That is nothing short of playing dirty.  That said, the Canes.... oh boy. They could have run this score to 6-0 with half a power play. It's embarrassing how bad the PP is. If the Canes go to the Cup finals against a team who scores at least 1 goal per game on the PP, they'll lose the close games because of the lack of results on the PP.

      Because he knows they are winning the cup. And I fully support his decision.
