Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee You're not going to change it, though. I don't think you're going to change it.

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee I don't know. I think the way to change it, if you're going to have any effect on it, is through the minor system, as we talked about, working its way up so that the players who are coming through—as peewees, bantams, midgets and juniors—have grown up in surroundings where it ju

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee I can't speak for the NHL. In fact, I still have hopes that they will look at concussion and help out in one form or another in terms of aiding some research. Dr. Mulder and I approached the concussion working group of the National Hockey League at the all-star game in L.A. Dr.

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Maybe we'll still get some money down the pike.

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee It is. I actually played with the last guy who didn't. It was Craig MacTavish. That's how far back I go. Yes, it is, and it is all the way through. When you go to the local outdoor rinks, I know that, if it's not law, they're certainly asking people to put helmets on, even if it

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Not that I'm aware of. Most of the guys wear mouthguards, which I think is pretty smart to do. Helmets have changed, but not drastically. They've improved, and they're always working on making things better, but again, it's not the equipment. The speed of the game right now is

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee It's not to say to our kids, “Go sit on the couch. It's so much safer on the couch. Go watch your blah blah blah....” Let's not make people afraid. Let's say that these things are going to occur, and when they do, we are ready, organized and prepared for you and we can get you ba

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Sure, let's start there. If you have the best imaging machines at McGill and Western, what programs can we set up so the load is being shared and they're working together and communicating? One might be better at one part than the other. Let's work together and get this done fast
February 6th, 2019Committee meeting
Eric Lindros
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Yes. My thought was that if people are good at blood biomarkers, let's get all of our best blood biomarker people working on a project together and collaborating. Maybe someone is missing something along the way. I always think that if you get into a situation.... It's not just m

Eric Lindros
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee I can't speak for the NHL, and quite honestly, any time you mix athletics and money, the lines blur. I don't think you should focus there. I think that's the top end. If you work on the culture making its way through, I think you're going to see an effect at the end of the strea
