Medical school exam forced Wickenheiser to miss her 'Call to the Hall'
You’ll have to excuse Hayley Wickenheiser for being unavailable on Tuesday. She was a little busy.
The Canadian hockey legend was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame — the first woman ever to make it in her first year of eligibility — but when she got the call informing her of her induction, Wickenheiser was stuck doing what most retired sporting icons do in their free time: writing a medical school exam, of course.
Hayley Wickenheiser was unable to be reached to be notified for her Call to the Hall. First inductee in a number of years. Lanny McDonald said Wickenheiser, a medical school student, is currently sitting for an exam today and would receive a failing grade if she used her phone.

Imagine being in such a predicament that you literally couldn’t answer the phone when Lanny McDonald and John Davidson called to congratulate you on receiving the highest honour possible for a hockey player, because you would fail an exam and put your future as a doctor in jeopardy.
Safe to say the GOAT is doing just fine.
