This Sums Up The Flyers Season Pretty WellThat’s Flyers left winger and enforcer Todd Fedoruk battling with the Rangers’ Colton Orr. Fedoruk — who has titanium plates in his face from an injury he suffered during a previous fight — and Orr began fighting just 21 seconds into the game. Fedoruk is apparently okay except for his pride. He had a concussion and some short-term memory loss, but didn’t suffer any facial fractures or injuries. The Flyers went on to lose 5-0. They’re now 20-54, with 51 points, nine behind the second-to-worst team in the NHL. Rangers knock out the Flyers [Inquirer] |

The Fedoruk incident proves the theory that the N.E Patriots head and neck specialist has hung his hat on. This was Fedoruks second facial injury of the year. Just like Ben Roethlisberger he has had trauma to his jaw joint. The first may have dislodged the meniscus in his jaw joint, leaving him in a bone on bone condition. This will cause a pinching of the nerves, the sensation of seeing stars, dizziness, headache and concussion are all symptoms. The blow to the jaw may have unhinged his other joint, there are two jaw joints. Like Roethlisberger, the more damage, the more susceptible you become. The neuro docs say that your brain is becoming softer and softer, yet not one has ever had any statistic to prove they know how to prevent a concussion. It is one of the biggest injustices in the world today. http://www.mahercor.com
