season and playoffs with strained ligaments in left knee, an injury that
required arthroscopic surgery
on Sept. 28, 1994. The surgery,
performed right before the NHL lockout, did not cause him to miss any games,
but did end his career, as he never returned for the resumption of the season
in 1995. His recovery from the relatively minor surgery had gone much slower
than expected, and he had continued to feel pain in the knee for weeks after
the operation. Doctors said they discovered additional problems, including
widespread cartilage damage, in the knee
after the surgery. They told McPhee in January 1995 that he would have to
retire, but he waited until the end of the summer to make his decision. |
