Oh man say it ain't so? Sadly I think you are correct good Sir. The risk reward analysis just doesn't pencil. My wife, Dr. and surgeon all echo your thoughts. I have searched high and low amongst our extended hockey community and have yet to find anyone that has decided to play again after TKR surgery. Competitive Hockey has been a part of my life for so long I simply don't know how to adjust without it. Appears I am about to learn.
