He also reflects on his friendship with the late Steve Montador who suffered from Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE). We look back at the 2018 report about the NHL’s seeming refusal to acknowledge a connection between dangers of a violent game and potential for permanent brain damage in cases like Steve Montador’s.
