lame list as it just active athletes, which none compare to the old timey guys like
Bobby Braun - former defenseman for the Toronto Maple Leafs. Broke his ankle during Game 6 of the 1964 Stanly Cup finals. He blocked a shot by Gordie Howe with his foot and was carted off the ice but came back to score the game winning goal.
Instead of having doctors look at his ankle and risk missing game 7 he hid out in his shed with his foot in a bucket of ice until game 7.
Somehow this guy toughed it out and didnt miss a single shift of Game 7.
