Did that kid end up dying? Very sad indeed...

At one of our games this year, a sister to one of my teammates was hit in the face by a slapper on a clearing attempt. The arena had the short, 4' glass, and the player was trying to clear the puck.. needless to say it cleared it, and hit her square in the mouth. Within 2 weeks that arena had 7' glass installed.

Sidenote- Her dad is the dentist for the MN Wild, so shes all fixed up and doing well. At one point, she had to get her lip re-opened because of swelling. They ended up pulling small chunks of rubber out of it.

at a narch tourney here, a kid was up on an equipment stand behind the goal. someone took a shot and it hit the post then broke the kids nose.

it was against a nexed sponsored team, so they gave the kid some free stuff!

but nothing can comepare to this sad sad sad story about this trajic death of a young kid. rip
