CBC Sports: Maple Leafs sign Lindros for 1 year

CBC Sports: Maple Leafs sign Lindros for 1 year: "Nearly 15 years after making his National Hockey League debut with the Philadelphia Flyers, Eric Lindros is coming home to Toronto to fulfill a lifelong dream"

Though injury prone throughout his 11-year NHL career – he has suffered eight concussions – the Big E remains a dominating force.

He had 10 goals and 22 assists in 39 games for the New York Rangers in the 2003-04 campaign before Washington Capitals defenceman Jason Doig put an end to his season with a thundering bodycheck.

Lindros, who had his right shoulder surgically repaired in March, reportedly passed a physical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam earlier this week.

"There's always a risk of something happening, but I'm working on stickhandling with my head up," he said, joking about his concussion history.

"On average, in the past three years, Eric has missed five games a year with concussions," said Carl Lindros. "That's fewer than Peter Forsberg or Jeremy Roenick. The bulk of Eric's concussions came in one year."
