Guest Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 He's on the IR for the rest of the season. I'm guessing that it's also the end of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel Heyman Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 He's almost completely blind in that eye, one of my teachers went to the game against the flames and he said that behind the play Manny cut in to turn on his blind side and almost wrecked a guy, didn't even see him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidney Crosby. Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Never the same after his eye injury. Fan favorite that was involved in the community. Would love to see him kept in the Canucks organization in management or somthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
