Crozier wasn't injured, he suffered from Pancreatis that made his availability unpredictable. By December 1975 he was through. He was 26-4-1 in the regular season over his final 3 seasons. If Healthy Desjardins wouldn't have seen a minute of action.
Correct, we knew that and should have said "ill" but that felt like it begged for a longer explanation.
Crozier's pancreatitis eventually turned into pancreatic cancer, which killed the Little Carpenter of Uxbridge
twenty years later.
