Justin Davis tells of junior hockey hazing rituals, concussions, need to clean up hockey culture
As Canadians we never tire of sharing our favourite hockey stories, whether they be memories of when we played hockey ourselves or of when our favourite team won the Stanley Cup.
Davis suffered several concussions during his playing days and has suffered from headaches, depression and some memory loss. Davis said the team delayed in getting him fast and proper medical treatment at a hospital in Detroit. “You don’t have that influence of parents. Your team is your family. The abnormal becomes normal. When you’re in the hot box and you’re in the back of the bus you think it’s a normal rite of passage to stand with six other guys naked in the bus bathroom,” Davis told SooToday.
Whether it involves putting an end to abuse or proper attention paid to concussions, Davis said his approach in writing his book is that “the culture aspect needs to be cleaned up and we need to put people in place that have some accountability and we need to stop doing things that we did in the past. We need to bring in new faces and new voices. That’s the only way things change.”
