Eric Lindros urges concussion protocol standards in Canada
OTTAWA, Ontario — Hockey Hall of Famer Eric Lindros says Canada needs a national standard to diagnose and treat concussions in sports.
He joined former pro hockey and football players at a conference Tuesday to discuss a protocol that could be taught in schools to help young athletes recognize a head injury.
Former Canadian Football League quarterback Matt Dunigan says young athletes and professionals need to know it’s OK to take themselves out of a game if they have a head injury.
