Frei: Why I think Bo Byram Should Wait ‘Til Next Season to Play Again (+)

As Colorado Hockey Now’s Adrian Dater originally reported, young defenseman Bo Byram has been skating again this week at Family Sports Center, the Avalanche’s open-to-the-public practice rink.

I’m not a doctor and I’m not privy to the details of how he’s feeling.

Nor do I know the progress he has made since being declared to be on personal leave after last playing against Seattle on January 10 and deciding the next morning in Nashville that he didn’t feel well enough to stay in the lineup.

So this is not going to be a presumptive, contrived desk-pounding “hot take” about what’s next in Byram’s attempt to overcome concussion issues.
