Give the guy credit for coming back from that injury. Coulda and probably shoulda ended his career. Hockey isn't a sport I'd think you would wanna play with one good eye.

Best of luck to him...not to the Flyers though...just him.

He hates the musical group, One eye blind.
Don't imagine he's too fond of Hossa either.

I also think that the Number 4 should be retired right across the NHL!
It's long overdue!
Maybe Berard thinks its 44 and can only see half of it.
Homgren should re-think signing Bryan, afterall, with the injuries this team suffers Bryan is a high risk. All Holmgren has to do is look back to last season...and with hindsight being 20/20...oh never mind. Bryan is the exception to that rule.

It is a real shame. I remember watching him live when the Leafs came to Buffalo after the trade and this kid could skate like the wind. He had his defensive deficiencies, but paired with Kaberle, I was excited that the Leafs had two smooth-as-silk puck movers who could join the rush and create so much excitement from the back-end. All of that changed in a split-second.

He has tried valiantly to keep his career going, and it is a small miracle a guy can play the fastest sport in the world with one eye... but obviously he is a mere shell of his former self.

Good luck Mr. Berard.

Very classy Baun-ded.

Hey, let's make fun of the guy that has a physical disability! You're a ****.

Heads up!!

Just think what could've been if Bryan didn't suffer that injury! Lesser men would've quit a long time ago! Gotta admire his courage and determination. The guy has balls!

It's great that he came back, but he simply can't defend anymore.

Nice comments from the Leafs' fans (Baun-ded and Peter G). I guess you can throw stones since he's no longer playing in Toronto. You guys are as classy as the team you root for.

Me a leaf fan? I'd rather cut my wrists with a screwdriver...

Sorry Peter, I thought you were one of the clones.

Gives new meaning to the ole one eye...

What? Class-less people on the T&R forums? My god I have never heard anything like it!

I try to ignore all the classless morons on the hockey T&R, but it's hard since 75% or so are regulars..

Baun-ded... #4 should absolutely be retired, along with #77 and #9. That was below the belt, though.

Good luck to him, hope he makes it. I had almost forgotten about Berard. He was a really good player just coming into his own when he was injured.

So we can now say my loser Islanders are not bringing him back. Berard would be inspiration and strong on the PP for my Islanders.
Dear God up above, how do we have our back-up goaltender as our GM???

It's third eye blind.

Obviously you guys dont know that Brain-ded was kidding. Berard does not play D. Thats the only bad thing i can say about him. I wouldnt care if he had 3.5 eyes and 3 arms or 1/2 a eye. He does'nt play D. I guess he could be used solely on the PP. He's a 2nd tier version of McCabe.

Know it all

Hey Einstein, I think he knew that.......Mr. Baun-ded has a well-honed sense of humor.

I resemble that remark......

Exactly.
