What to do About Michael Cammalleri

Some people don't like that hyphenated word and some people don't understand why other people don't like it. When you have a problem area of your body, it's almost inarguable that it is more likely to be injured. But some people think that labeling an entire athletes body injury-prone is not fair. A player's style may lend himself to injury, but any player playing that style would have the same injury. I understand that point, but let me just point out this:

Season injury time missed
2009-10 knee 6 weeks
2010-11 shoulder month
2011-2012 cut on leg 2 weeks
2011-2012 upper body 9 games
2013-2014 hand 7 games
2013-2014 concussion 10 games
2014-2015 foot 4 games
2014-2015 neck 6 games

Wow that's a wide array of different injuries.
