That is how I ended up with Quebec. I was one of the players involved in the Lindros trade. Here is an inside scoop you will never hear on ESPN. When Lindros refused to sign with Quebec, as 1st round draft pick, he sealed his fate. He was a targeted man in the NHL. There is a secret understanding that you never refuse your draft pick. He was targeted (physically) once he started playing in the league and suffered many concussions that ultimately ended his career early.

I remember that hit! Really interesting to hear some backstory from someone who has been there @jetblake.

Oh OK. great!
