Really sheds a lot of light on what went wrong with him. It was never that he was lazy, he was just sick. Always a shame when a player's career gets cut short by injuries/illness, especially such a young kid. Wish him all the best.

Did Vancouver know?

The article says it was undiagnosed until he retired and got more tests done.

It’s unfair to criticize fans here for their criticism on Cody... even he didn’t know. It always sucks when problems like this happen to players. For him to still be involved in growing hockey is great. I’m glad he’s still active in the game.

I dated someone for a long time who was eventually diagnosed with malignant hyperthermia.

After seeing that, it's amazing CH was ever able to play hockey at all. Good on him for finding a way to give back even with a career cut short by this.

I had no idea and I think a lot of us feels like real turds for crapping on him. Really impressive to carve out a carreer at all. I wish the guy all the best!

On another note - there are a few players on our team that might need to undergo that same muscle biopsy... ;)
