Perhaps Carroll was so prepared for a break because he believes there is very little the Seattle Seahawks need heading into the off-season. "I dont see anything that we need to add. We just have to get better," Carroll said. OTTAWA, Ontario -- Clarke MacArthur reported to the Ottawa Senators training camp healthy and excited for the season. He never imagined his plans would be derailed in a simple scrimmage.Speaking to the media for the first time since he suffered his fourth concussion, MacArthur, 31, talked about the hit that knocked him out of action, and he vowed to return to the ice this season.Playing in a Sept. 25 scrimmage, MacArthur played a puck in the corner and was about to turn up the ice when he was hit by defenseman Patrick Sieloff.First thing I remember, I was looking straight up at the bright lights, like I was at a KISS concert or something, MacArthur said. Then I kind of put two and two together what happened. I was upset, obviously. Just going through what I went through last year, I was just praying it wasnt going to be the same thing, and so far, things have been a lot better and moving along a lot quicker.MacArthur entered the scrimmage symptom-free after missing all but four games last season while he recovered from a previous devastating concussion. He has been at the rink regularly and has resumed light skating of late. He continues to suffer some symptoms, but not to the degree of last year, when he could barely function.MacArthur was quick to affirm he isnt currently considering retirement.At this point, I was obviously devastated by the hit, along with other people who have been around me and been through it, but Im standing up here today, and hopefully the next time we do this, it will be before my first game or another step forward in a positive way, MacArthur said.Married with two young children, MacArthur understands that people will question his ddecision to return to the game, but he says only he can know whats in his best interest.ddddddddddddI take my information from the doctors, he said. Were taking it a step at a time, and if they say Im OK to play, then I want to keep playing.I just feel, at my age, I still have a lot to give, and Im not ready for the next chapter yet, so Im going to continue with this one if I can. Im the only one who knows how my body feels. I feel if I can keep making steps in the right direction, then some people wont like it, but there will be people that do like it too. I want to continue playing if I can.MacArthurs absence leaves a void both on and off the ice. Not only is he a skilled forward, but he is also easily one of the most popular members of the team and a significant part of the leadership group.The Senators want to ensure that MacArthur feels like part of the team, and he will join the team for its western Canadian trip next week.To see him battling the way he is and showing persistence means a lot to us, defenseman Mark Borowiecki said. Hes just such a huge part of this team. To have him around us is special for all of us. You never want to see something like this happen to anyone, but it stings a little more when its someone like Clarke. It will be great to have him on the road.At this point, MacArthur said he has no timetable for his return and is willing to be patient.Its hard to say right now, he said. Every day Im trying to just do a little more and see where Im at every day. Im slowly getting better. Its going to take a while. ' ' '
