D. Sedin loses teeth, misses a shift, scores (pic)

Daniel Sedin takes a puck in the mouth.

Misses two shifts.

Comes back to score.

The Twins can't fight for shit but they're tough as hell.

 

I'm not a hockey fan but I have huge respect for these guys. For the hockey fans out there, is there a reason they don't wear full face masks? I get the toughness vibe, but Jesus that's gnarly. Phone Post 3.0

Breaks my heart these two will never win a Stanley cup. They have been so close to, both great players, amazing puck movement and they take a shit kicking every season especially in the playoffs and they still manage to be effective.

They've got to be getting tired and the fucking deserve a rest. I just hope they can cap off their careers with another playoff run.

Good summary Soup.

Part of the reason they struggle in the playoffs is that they've never had any secondary scoring and they just get matched up against the first D pairing every damn shift.

Hank and Dank are two of the most charitable guys around, both with their time and money. Two great guys IMO. Phone Post 3.0

I've never been a big Canucks fan but it would be nice to see these guys win a Cup before they retire. They've earned it.

I hope they both send Brian Burke a fat wad of cash every year. Who knows where they'd be if he hadn't pulled off those amazing draft day moves. Crazy to think there's only 30 career points separating them after 15 years. Phone Post 3.0

Rumbleeee - This guy:http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/9425265/patrice-bergeron-punctured-lung-released-hospital

Broke a rib sometime before game 6 and doctors punctured his lung with a needle during a procedure to release pressure from the rib so he could play. Goes on to play game 6 with a broke rib, punctured lung, separated shoulder, and torn rib cartilage. Holy fuck.
I always look forward to reading the injury reports after a team has been knocked out of the playoffs because they're so secretive about what's really going on. A guy could lose his right arm in Game 1 and be listed as "day-to-day". It's mind blowing.

Inevitably I feel guilty when I read that the guy I've been screaming at on tv for two weeks played a seven game series with his balls duct taped together and his spleen hanging out of his body. Hockey players are a different animal altogether. Phone Post 3.0

Which sucks it's not that they are bad in the playoffs the canucks have never had that true second lime depth, they've always just gotten through with individual guys going on streaks or coming up big at the right time.

I would love to see them win a cup but it's not going to happen in Vancouver and they won't play anywhere else. I think we see another two years out of them and in that time Vancouver will do nothing trade wise buy them their buttholes. Phone Post 3.0

Rumbleeee - Jesus.. Hockey players are as tough as they come. Didn't some guy for Boston play in the Stanley Cup a couple years ago with a torn achilles, punctured lung, dislocated shoulder, and some other crazy shit?

So true. My right ankle was purple and swollen to shit for two weeks because I blocked a shot on a Sunday night. In a 6-1 game. In front of twelve people. In my meaningless men's league.

I was limping off thinking "I'm a 40 year old man and I have to be in the office in 10 hours. What the fuck is wrong with me? WHO DOES THIS?" As soon as I got to the bench I looked out and there was a 48 year old accountant, who plays without a cage, diving face first towards the boards to clear the puck out of our zone. At least I'm not the only idiot out there. Phone Post 3.0

This one gave me chills watching it. Campbell breaks his leg (fibula broken in half) blocking the shot, then continues to finish his penalty kill shift until he can get off the ice. Basically kills off the last 40 seconds of the pp with 1 leg.

Rich Peverley literally (not figuratively) died of a cardiac event on the bench during a game.  They revived him and when he came to he wanted to leave the ambulance and get back in the game.

http://nesn.com/2014/03/rich-peverley-update-stars-forward-wanted-back-in-game-after-regaining-consciousness/

It was a scary scene in Dallas on Monday night, when Stars forward Rich Peverley collapsed on the bench during the first period.

The PA announcer informed the crowd that the former Boston Bruin was conscious on his way to the hospital, but the game would be postponed as players on both teams understandably were shaken. As it turns out, though, one person — Peverley — wanted to keep playing.

“He was brought back to the hallway for treatment, where we treated him for a cardiac event, successfully treated with standard therapy,” Dr. Gil Salazar told the Dallas Morning News. “As soon as we treated him, he regained consciousness. He was alert and awake talking to us after the event and quickly transported to the hospital. At this point, I was able to talk to him in the back of the ambulance, and he was able to tell me where he was and he actually wanted to get back in the game.”

Added Salazar: “We provided oxygen for him. We started an IV. We did chest compressions on him and defibrillated him, provided some electricity to bring a rhythm back to his heart, and that was successful with one attempt, which is very reassuring.”

Peverley missed the entire preseason and the Stars’ first regular-season game with an irregular heartbeat. The heart condition also was the reason for his absence in last Tuesday’s game in Columbus.

“It was the same thing,” Stars coach Lindy Ruff said last week, per the Morning News. “He’s been monitoring it the whole year and this might have been the first or second time it’s come around, but it’s something he has to deal with and it’s something that obviously we’re aware of.”

The Stars also announced Peverley would undergo more testing over the next few days.

Yeah, I remember that one. I also remember the Oilers' Jason Smith getting his mouth sewn back together beside the bench so he didn't miss a shift in the playoffs.

On the night that Lebron James twisted his ankle and had to be carried off the court, Steven Stamkos snapped his tibia in half and kept trying to get up, only to have it fold up underneath him. There's a funny meme out there about it. Phone Post 3.0
