Erik Gudbranson’s wife once opened up on the toll of his injuries in Vancouver

Earlier this year, Erik Gudbranson’s wife, Sarah, appeared on the “Never Offside podcast with Julie and Kat”. During the episode, she spoke about how difficult Gudbranson’s injuries were during his time with the Vancouver Canucks.

She explained that Erik had gone through multiple surgeries, including a few in Vancouver and that period was emotionally hard for their family. She said it was tough to watch him deal with the pressure of returning to the game.

“Those few years for us were really, really hard,” Sarah said. “I mean, it's, yeah, it's definitely such a mental grind for him, I'd say.”

She also told a story about how Erik found out he had been traded. In the summer of 2016, when the Florida Panthers traded him to the Vancouver Canucks, he was actually on a riverboat cruise in Africa with no Wi-Fi.

Sarah was in Florida and saw the news online before Erik even knew. She explained that Erik remained unaware for 12 hours and by the time he found out, everyone else already knew.
