In 1989, Buffalo Sabres’ goaltender, Clint Malarchuk had his jugular vein severed by a skate. The sight was so shocking that 11 fans fainted, 2 people had heart attacks, and 3 players vomited on the ice. If the skate had hit 1/8th inch higher on Malarchuk’s carotid, he would have been dead within two minutes. Additionally, If Clint hadn’t placed his hand exactly where he did, or if he was on the other end of the ice, he would of assuredly died as well.
