Rick Nash was all heart with the Rangers

Former Rangers forward, Rick Nash, has just announced his retirement from the NHL. Nash, who last played for the Boston Bruins in the second round of the 2018 playoffs, had been sidelined due to the continuous effects of taking one too many blows to the head.

He, apparently, was sitting out this current season because he was waiting to see if the constant headaches and dizziness would subside and it would be safe to resume his hockey playing career. After careful deliberation with his doctors and his family, the man known as ‘Nasher” with the Twitter handle of “Nashty” has decided to error on the side of caution and hang up his stick and skates and end his professional NHL career.
