Why The Non-Disclosure Of Injuries Works

from Kelly Hrudey of Blogs and Columns at CBC,
I shared goalie duties with a really good guy, Chris Terreri, but shortly after opening the season, Chris broke his hand in a game in St. Louis.
A couple of games after that, I separated my right shoulder and our goalie prospects at that time weren’t ready for NHL action.
The Sharks chose not to tell anybody about my injury.
So I ended up playing 12 straight with a separated shoulder. This kind of injury made it impossible for me to raise my arm over my shoulder.
If the other teams around the league would have known of my injury, without question every shot would have been high to my stick side.
