Time to ban pucks from hockey games.

It can't be said too often: Keep the bleepin' puck on the ice.
Some kid thought he was being smart lifting the puck. Didn't mean to hurt anyone, but it should be a rule to keep the puck on the ice if you aren't wearing helmets.
At the New Year's party we went to a couple of nights ago, with a lot of children playing around the house, some problem kid threw a block and hit a young girl on the head. She had blood all over her face and her mother had to take her to the ER for stitches. Don't throw blocks, don't lift pucks. But it's bound to happen once in a while. Kids don't realize the consequences.
What a tragic ending to what was to have been a wonderful father son event.
This is sad news, indeed. Freak accidents. When God puts His Hand on your shoulder, that's it.
I remember hearing about that, it was a sad story. It was never prosecuted like it should have been, either.
Sad. Hockey is a tough sport. My son has a scrimmage tonight.
Sounds like someone fired a poorly controlled slapshot while his back was turned.
Bad form, reckless and very dangerous.
Dead Players, dead fans... no wonder hockey can't find too much appeal in the US.
