-Vintage Canuck- Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Quote It turns out Eric Lindros may have had the chance to prolong his Hall of Fame career after several years away from the game. "The Big E" spoke to reporters in Toronto on Friday following the ring ceremony as part of the Hockey Hall of Fame Induction Weekend, where he explained that in 2012, former Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren asked if he was willing to come out of retirement. By 2012, Lindros was already been out of the NHL for five years - he retired after the 2006-07 season - but what a sight that comeback would've been. http://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/1152272 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJDDawg Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I don't think it would have been a good sight at all. With his concussion related issues, that sight could have been of him motionless on the ice. Good call on his part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost a shame that Holmgren would actually considering endangering Lindros further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonshinefe Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 If that's true, that shows a pretty disappointing level of ignorance by Holmgren on how concussions work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancaster Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Maybe Lindros just couldn't differentiate between a "comeback" and "come back". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
