REPORT: Former Carolina Hurricane BLAMES Ron Francis for RUINING his NHL career
Making it to a professional sports league is one of the hardest things to do in the world. It takes so much dedication, training and nutrition that people don't see behind the scenes that you might even question if its all worth it.
But when you do finally make it, it's a dream come true and it's something you never want to stop doing.
James Wisniewski played in 552games scoring 53goals 221 assists for 274 points. He was a consistent top-4 defenceman, who was reliable for 30+ points, and even scored 51 points one season.
Wisniewski's final season in the NHL was with the Carolina Hurricanes, who at the time were run by Ron Francis. Wisniewski was injured after the first game of the season, and towards the end of the year, believed he was healthy and ready to go, but Francis wouldn't let him play.
