Clint Malarchuk 30 for 30

ESPN recently made a 30 for 30 Shorts video about Clint Malarchuk and his life after hockey. For those who don't know, Malarchuk was a Buffalo Sabres goalie who had his neck sliced open by a skate blade. I found this short film to be very interesting to watch, and I learned a lot about Malarchuk.

I'll watch it tonight. Not looking forward to seeing his throat vomit blood 15 feet across the ice again, but...

You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting. Kind of a low-rent DG_Now.

Anyone else having problems with video working?

Not sure if it's with my computer or settings or possibly because I'm in Canada.

Everytime I go play a pick-up game I think about Malarchuk and Zednik. There's no medical personnel watching our games. If somebody takes a skate blade to the jugular they'll bleed out. Granted, we aren't as physical so bodies aren't flying around the same way, but accidents can always happen.

It feels like it should happen more often.
