Default Clint Malarchuk Hockey Accident - 1989

I stumbled across this video online. I had never heard of this, but it was a shocker to me. I feel pretty bad for this guy...

This is a quote from a forum post:
Quote:
March 22, 1989. Clint Malarchuk took a hockey skate to the throat and got a 6 inch opening to his carotid. He still managed to skate off the ice. The announcers are like "My God, take the camera off." and Sabres fans were fainting due to sheer fright as blood gushed through the cut & Clint coughed up pools of blood. He required 300 stitches, but was back out on the ice in 3 weeks.

No, this event happened 15 years ago. I doubt that many people online who know about this event are still attempting to research it.

I being a goalie myself found the video emotionally shocking. It was put together in a nice way, and thus I have posted it here.

The video is legit, that was what was released. The controversial subject is that the beheading seems to be fake. ... this is the wrong thread for that though... :?
