Decades after he nearly died, hockey player asks why neck guards still aren't mandatory

Former hockey goalie Kim Crouch shows the scar caused by a skate cut that almost cost him his life during a 1975 game. His late father, Ed, invented what's believed to be the first neck guard so he could return to the ice.

The tragic death of Adam Johnson, 29, during a U.K. pro game has renewed the debate over mandatory neck guards in hockey. Kim Crouch, the man who wore the first one 50 years ago, hopes things will finally change.
