    Richard posted that great photo of Robert Probert, leaving the ice with 3 helmets in his hand - post #18 above.

    Probert died last year of heart problems. His brain went to Boston University - at his request. It showed that he had CTE - chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

    From CBC, here is some info about this condition.

    Athletes in many sports are at risk to develop this over time.
