Do you feel a neck guard would have helped you in the situation?

Are you Clint Malarchuk?

I take it you have a guard on order now?
I wonder how often players have been cut like this but the public never knew, and now we are going to hear about it more…

Are you actively wearing a neck guard now and advocating for them as mandatory equipment.

Can you give a detailed account of the scenario/immediate first aid you received?

A very lucky guy. I feel like sometimes we forget just how dangerous this sport can be. I’m a figure skater and had a skate related injury to my face about 10 years ago. Nowhere near as bad, but still extremely scary.

This might sound barbaric so I apologize but did you feel a lot of pain or did the adrenaline mask it?

Did they arrest the other player for attempted murder? /s
Edit: You’re downvoting because you think a player (Petgrave, for example) should be arrested for murder because of an on-ice hit… or?
I’m confused.

What’s your thoughts on this manslaughter charge?
nick1706
Would you recommend to new/young players that they should wear neck protection?
Also, did this experience change how you play the game at all? As in, are you more cautious/fearful on the ice, or do you play the same as before?
thxforfishandstuff
Just put a thumb in it.

Does it just feel like your neck got wet? Or warm? How long before you realised what happened

Glad you’re okay.
Had a teammate get sliced last season too. Right over the top of his carotid artery. He got incredibly lucky, and it only broke through the outer layers of skin. Doctors said a few cm deeper and he would have been gone.

Which neck guard did you buy after?

As someone who has had the injury. Do you think Adam Johnson’s injury was intentional? Sounds to me that a scrum in front of net vs an open ice hit are two different scenarios. Just curious on your thoughts.
2. Are neck guards the answer? Or do you consider this type of injury an inherent risk of playing an ice sport?
