His determination is commendable, yet Bowen Byram will inevitably face a challenging choice about his NHL career. The defenseman for the Colorado Avalanche, who has grappled with concussions throughout his time in the league, was forced out of the recent matchup against the Anaheim Ducks after a substantial collision.
While skating in the offensive zone and focusing elsewhere, Byram absorbed a significant, legal hit from Max Jones, resulting in his removal from the game.
After the match, there was no information provided by Avs coach Jared Bednar regarding Byram's status. The 22-year-old has been absent for numerous games due to concussions and head injuries during his career. At a certain juncture, he contemplated the possibility of retiring due to these recurring issues.
