Mike Duggan and his hockey buddies were strapping on their gear one recent morning when their banter hopscotched, as it frequently does, to the subject of joint replacement surgeries.
Duggan, 74, the proud owner of an artificial hip, marveled at the sheer number of titanium body parts in the locker room.
He gestured toward Mitch Boriskin, who was wiggling into a pair of skates along the opposite wall.
“I don’t think there’s an original part on you,” Duggan said.
“Two fake knees, a spinal cord stimulator, 25 surgeries,” he began, as if reciting a box score.
