Reaching out to Pension Plan Puppets: Community research project

Greetings, Pension Plan Puppets.

I recently started a community research project on Die By the Blade. We got off to a good start but I thought reaching out to other fan-bases would only help. Please follow the jump for details.

Star-divide

What I'm looking for:

Goalies who have suffered a concussion.

What I have so far:

Ryan Miller:

March 29, 2011. Source. Source.

November 12, 2011. Source.

Steve Mason:

November 21, 2011. Source. Source.

(Also apparently had one in Juniors (date?) - see above source.)

Joey MacDonald:

November 5, 2011. Source.

(Was in AHL when incident occurred.)

James Reimer:

October 22, 2011. Source.

Rick DiPietro:

March 13, 2007. Source. Source.

February 4, 2011. Source.

October 12, 2011. Source.

Al Montoya:

December 20, 2011. Source.

Josh Harding:

(Date?) 2011. Source(?)

November 28, 2004. Source.

Jonas Hiller:

January 30, 2011. Source.

(It was eventually diagnosed as vertigo after symptoms recurred, but if it waddles like a duck and quacks like a duck...)

Ondrej Pavelec:

October 8, 2010. Source.

Manny Legace:

December 10, 2008. Source.

Mike Smith:

January 4, 2007. Source.

February 3,2008. Source.

Mike Richter:

(Date?) 1998. Source.

March 22, 2002. Source.

November 5, 2002. Source. Source.

December 12, 2002. Source.

April 5, 2002. Source. Source.

Mike Vernon:

Jamie Storr:

Pete Peeters:

November 5, 1989. Source.

Doug Favell:

September 25, 1969. Source.

Jacques Plante:

March(?) 1958. Source.

How to help:

In the comments, please respond with the goalie's name, the date of the incident, and a source. If you can only provide one or two of the three, that's fine. Every bit helps.

Also, anywhere you see a (?), that means I need a clarification - such as a date or source.

Thanks in advance.

Out of curiosity, what is the goal of this research?

I think Wilson made it pretty clear that Reimer was suffering CONCUSSION-LIKE SYMPTOMS, not a concussion.

No no, dig UP stupid.

I’ve seen multiple Leafs reporters refer to it pretty clearly as a concussion. I suppose ultimately it comes down to whether you think the team has any reasons for hiding a concussion or if you think they’re being 100% open.

The plural of "anecdote" is not "data".

Ya sorry I was being a sarcastic asshole, it was clearly a concussion.

No no, dig UP stupid.

Noted.

For my purposes he will be included (as will Hiller) but noted throughout as a concussion-like.

Wendel’s shot that knocked off CuJo’s helmet must have scrambled something. /joking but it’s Wendel…

I didn,t really look over the rest of the list but there may be some other goalies who have had injuries as well.

This also doesn’t include those “Non reported” Injuries throughout the NHL. I am sure that Roman Cechmanek had a couple because of his style. He used to do what we called the “Cranium Carom” where he would “headbut” a puck towards the walls that were shot high at him like a soccer goalie head butting a soccer ball.

NUTZ !

I remember that. Didn't he used to have guys shoot at his head in warm ups too?

And yeah, there seems to be a trend forming. About one reported concussion every decade or so until Richter in’02.

That was the rumor that he used to ask guys to intentionally do that.

I think thats crazy stupid
