Crowell tore biceps in the last game of the season...

[Sabres244]

It's been a different kind of offseason for Angelo Crowell. Healing up from surgery, seeing a familiar face arrive via free agency, and thinking about his own future have made for an interesting three months for the defensive co-captain.

First on the list was the surgery just a few days after the season. Crowell tore his triceps muscle in the season finale at Philadelphia.

"It happened with six minutes left in the game," said Crowell. "I fell on my elbow and it just grabbed on me. I didn't think it was torn, so I stayed in for the next two plays and then came out when I realized I couldn't push with that arm. It felt like I had a cramp, but it didn't feel right."

Not exactly the way to start an offseason, but in hindsight Crowell believes it helped force him to give his body a break.

Man that had to have hurt. I tore some tendons in my arm once and that hurt more than any break, re-break or dislocation I've ever had. I can only imagine tearing your bicep. Ouch.....

I feel lucky. I've torn my hammy once but that's it. Took about 6 weeks to heal that was a gay summer. But no broken bones or tendon tears for me.
