Tune in this Monday for a special Thanksgiving edition of Connect.
We're looking at the hard hits hockey took last season, and their real impact on Canada's game. From an epidemic of concussions, to the tragic deaths of three NHL enforcers.
Former NHL enforcer Jim Thomson makes the case for why hits to the head... have to stop.
Plus, Ken Dryden on what it's going to take to keep our hockey heroes safe.
Tune this Monday at 8 p.m. ET on CBC News Network.
