Health and life after hockey both complicated for Marc Savard

I spoke to Marc Savard at length a few months ago about life after hockey, a career with the Bruins, health, and family. This is the story that developed, featured here as a guest post.

These days, you’re more likely to find former NHL star Marc Savard playing in a professional golf tournament than in a professional hockey game.

In the winters, he coaches his son Tyler’s AAA hockey team in Peterborough, Ont.
