Ian Moran: On playing hurt in hockey - and not other sports (carpal tunnel?!) - and tough teammates taken at BSJ Headquarters (Bruins)

Ian Moran played in over 500 NHL games, including 66 in the postseason, in 15 years as a defenseman with the Penguins, Bruins, and Ducks before retiring in 2008. The Acton native attended Belmont Hill and Boston College before being a sixth-round pick of the Penguins in 1990. The Duxbury resident is currently the head New England scout for Neutral Zone, a first-of-its-kind hockey scouting and news site which identifies, ranks and profiles NCAA and Ontario Hockey League (OHL) prospects from across North America. Ian occasionally will take BostonSportsJournal.com readers inside the game from a player's perspective. You can follow Ian on Twitter at @IMHockeySkills.
