Wow that sounds bad and PAINFUL Ian but I gotta say this thread is useless without pictures of the damage.

Wow, that brings back memories, I used to play hockey in my college days. I love the sport, nothing like it, I felt so good after each game and I couldn't wait for the next one. A couple blown out knees later, I had to stop.
It has been about 15 years since I last skated and I don't think my body can take it anymore, so no hockey for me as I am way out of shape and I don't feel like getting my arse kicked. But, I still have my skates and I hope to lace up when I get to MN. Like Jerry said, this is completely useless information without pics. Pics or ban. BTW, I hope you didn't let the other guy off the hook.

There are "hockey moms" and "hockey nuts"
Cutch,
You are not alone. My youngest son, 34, plays club hockey in Raleigh, NC twice a week and pick-up hockey once a week. In September, he was up against the boards when someone fell on his leg which broke his ankle. He had it taped up and finished the game, after which he went to the emergency room and they put a hard cast on his leg to the knee. Three weeks later, they took off the hard cast and gave him a soft cast - he was to use the soft cast for a month. Three days after the hard cast was off he was back playing hockey. His wife was really ****ed. As he told her, "they didn't say I couldn't play hockey, just that I had to wear the soft cast for a month." I attribute his thought process to the fact that he has had one tour in Afghanistan and one tour in Iraq with the Army Reserves. Comparatively speaking, hockey must seem like a rational activity. |

Park and rec hockey and no cage? Crazy. Fourteen stitches to the chin got me to wear one, though it didn't help with the dislocated shoulder or the "pucks with eyes" that find the voids in the gear.
Don't have a pic of the chin, but this is what it looks like a few days after taking a slap shot to the ankle ... a cankle with internal bleeding that likes to pool at the bottom of the foot. I'm sure there is an akle bone in there somewhere.

My understanding is that this site is PG....which may not allow my modelling portfolio...the hockey pictures are free domain

We don't want to see your kinky modeling pics Cutch, we just wanted to see the hockey-related pics of the black eyes and the other cool hockey related facial damage you told us about.
