Retired NHL Star To Make A Comeback Despite Career-Ending Diagnosis
Former NHL player Cody Hodgson, who had to retire prematurely in 2016 due to a rare muscle disorder, is reportedly contemplating a return to the league.
Elliotte Friedman Drops News of Hodgson's NHL Comeback Attempt
Selected 10th overall by the Vancouver Canucks, Hodgson showcased early potential in his career, tallying 142 points in 328 games before stepping away at the age of 26.
Elliotte Friedman recently shared Hodgson's comeback aspirations.
"Holy sh*t Friedman just reported Hodgson is looking to make a comeback to the NHL."
A Grueling Road Ahead for Cody Hodgson
Approaching almost a decade since his last NHL appearance, the 36-year-old Hodgson understands the challenges of making it in the NHL. Despite his age, if he can keep up with the pace of the league, securing a deal shouldn't be out of reach.
