It is a little sad when so much of the hockey sports news and sports on the web is centered around the concussion issues that are plaguing the game these days. The latest player to fall victim is Chris Pronger of the Philadelphia Flyers.   Earlier the Flyers lost their and the leagues leading point getter Claude Giroux to concussion.
