Logan Couture opens up about the injury that ended his NHL career — and the difficult process of figuring out what comes next. In this emotional extended clip from Frankly Speaking, the longtime San Jose Sharks captain walks us through how the injury happened, the repeated attempts at recovery, and the moment he realized he couldn’t return to the ice.
Couture shares what it was like to lose not just the game, but the camaraderie, the routine, and the identity that came with it. He reflects on the mental toll of sitting out, watching his team from the sidelines, and ultimately accepting that his body was done — even though his competitive fire wasn’t.
Later, Logan looks ahead to life after hockey: from reconnecting with the sport on his own terms to possibly finding a new role in the game, and what it means to rediscover purpose when the only career he’s ever known comes to an end.
🔹 How did the injury unfold and why couldn’t he come back?
🔹 What was the hardest part of stepping away?
🔹 Is there a future for Logan in hockey — off the ice?
A raw, honest, and thoughtful look at one of the NHL’s most respected leaders.

This the dude that leaked the announcement and he’s interviewing him, crazy
Play with your kids Logan. They are more important then the game. You'll be back. You look young and healthy. Just have fun and enjoy Silence – Depeche Mode
I wonder if this is what happened to the Flyers Ryan Ellis.
