One concussion does not equate Richards to Lindros. Concussions weren't just Eric's problem, they ran in his family. That and the fact that Lindros skated head down made him a huge risk for concussion.
Richards is the opposite, he's extremely durable and he only had one significant injury ever which was a freak accident. He's fine, he had a concussion with the same recoverytine as the concussion I had. I've had several hits to my head since, even shortly after recovering from my concussion and I haven't had a problem since. Crosby should worry about his concussion, not Richards.
