Supreme shots are the most popular fodder for hockey panels these days, but there is another serious – and preventable – outrage that is much more common: skate lacerations.
Since hockey began, players have been injured in the tenseness of the battle by sharp blades on their feet, but the frequency of skate lacerations is increasing.
This ready alone in the NHL, big name players such as Andrei Markov, Kevin Bieksa, Cam Ward, Ryan Getzlaf and Marian Gaborik missed games due to skate laceration injuries.
These injuries almost always happen during large pileups in front of the net after the whistle. In the chaos it is easy for one unlucky Thespian to be accidently stepped on or clipped by another player’s skate.
