Jason Dickinson's persistent worry about skate injuries is profound, shaped by his own brush with near-disasters on the ice, making him wary despite knowing safety innovations exist.
"Ever since I was in junior, I was always super paranoid about my arms being up on the boards and someone jumping over. Those are sharp. I've been cut by much duller things."
Dickinson's experience with skate cuts, particularly his near-miss to his collarbone and nearly injuring a fellow player, contribute to a heightened caution during games.
Despite his awareness of cut-resistant gear, Dickinson balances safety with comfort, ultimately prioritizing his performance over the potential risks, highlighting the complex nature of athlete safety.
