b_b -do hockey players suffer from the same type of statistics that NFL players do regarding post career health problems? Do they end up with brain injuries because of the hits against the boards etc.? If not, is this because the NHL is better at publishing such things as dirty hits etc? I am only a casual observer of the NFL, but I do love hockey. From what I can gather, hockey players are far more hard on each other in regards to self policing against dirty players. In the NFL it seems more celebrated to take someone out no matter what and in the NHL there seems to be a code among players. I think I am probably over romanticizing the sport of hockey in regards to their code of ethics…
