On the heels of last night’s 2-0 victory over the Maple Leafs in Toronto, David Shoalts of the Globe & Mail provides some background behind the injury which kept Steve Sullivan out of the lineup for nearly two years:
It was almost 10 years ago, as his father Kenn tells it, when Steve Sullivan bent over to put a few things in the dishwasher and felt something give in his back.
“People think he got hurt playing hockey,” Kenn said yesterday. “He got hurt when he was playing for the Leafs and was putting dishes in the dishwasher in ‘99.”
So does this mean we can blame women’s liberation for all that lost playing time? (j/k)
