Savard was a supremely promising hockey player from the get-go, averaging just under 90 points per season from 2005/06 through 2008/09. Unfortunately, in March of 2010, he was blindsided by Matt Cooke of Pittsburgh, which left Savard with a severe concussion, forcing him to drop out for the rest of that season. Savard briefly returned for the postseason, but he suffered yet another concussion, the effects of which he still suffers from to this day.
