Fyrer took a stick under the chin following a faceoff last year to earn that concussion, making him re-think a profession he loved practically from the first moment his skates touched the ice with a finger whistle attached to his hand as a 15-year-old in his native Massachusetts.  Fyrer followed two brothers into the world of youth refereeing back then, finding it a great way to get extra ice time as well as pocketing some decent money for a teenager.
