I'm sure he would give up the rest of his money owed plus what he has to be pain free. I'm 28 and have had 2 major back surgeries looking at a 3rd and I have 2 other disks that are on their way to eventually needing fused. From August to January this year I was literally bed ridden from the pain sitting down caused. I whole heartedly feel for this guy and it sucks to see what seems to be a legitimate good guy get so much hate because the leafs overpaid him and we took him on for Horton. Actually getting him saves us from Horton he should be well liked to be honest. If it was like knee issues or shoulder issues ok it's not life altering and destroying but chronic back issues can completely anihalate your world. I truly hope they find a way to fix him up and good for him staying here and helping the kids we need more big name people in the state to help get hockey growing more here.
