That cannot be good for him.

 

Yeah he is a RFA this year as well. Hopefully gets better and can decide what to do on his own terms

Any chance we can get an update to the thread title? This one threw me for a loop at first because I missed the original date.

 

My bad, I figured there was already a thread on him so rather then start another one I placed the new info here.

No problem, just wanted to throw the request out there. Chz is usually good with these kind of things.

Just as confusing with the new title if you click on the link and start reading from the top. :blink:

 

Totally sucks. Guy will probably spend the rest of his life wondering.

 

Fixed it for him.

Ominous quote in d&c back in Dec:

 

That's because the saves have been so much more difficult for him to make, for whatever reason. Of goalies that have played at least 10 games this season, Lieuwen ranks 47th in the AHL in save percentage (.883). He is 43rd in GAA (3.29).

So on the pre-game show last night, someone (Hamsammich?) was explaining that Lieuwen has been playing with blurred vision all season and concealing that fact from everyone.

 

He's gotta just hang 'em up, IMO.

Jeez, that's bad. I don't pretend to know what all tests they take at camp, but hard to imagine he's been dealing with this for months (closer to a year if they expect it's from the April concussion) and no one knew. Gotta admire the tenacity and desire to play, but sounds like his career might be over before it ever really started.

Gotta feel bad for the guy. Along the lines of Joe Mesi, dreams dashed just as you are at the cusp of what you'd spent most of your entire life working towards. Missed your big payoff by *this* much.

Nevermind hockey, what about all the other things he's been doing lately with blurred vision, like say driving? I realize you are worried about getting pulled off the ice, but this was a seriously stupid decision on his part.

His probably still got better vision than a good number of elderly who still drive.
