Hockey tragedy leads to demand for change

1. cage mask, teeth guard, neck guards were all the rules in my peewee league but we would literally dive in front of the puck playing defense and take slap shots to the face because we were armored up like hell

2. I feel bad for that kid who crashed into him. Imagine having to live with that for the rest of your life.

3. Until professional players wear them every minute of every game, they will never be required.

4. The guilt will probably ruin his life

5. I'm glad to see people using protective gear. condolences to all. horrible for everyone involved.

6. This has happen before, so sad to see it happen again.

7. Wow! That is a horrible way to die. The other kid who was involved in this accident probably needs counseling. The guilt he feels must be tremendous.

8. I feel bad for that kid who crashed into him. Imagine having to live with that for the rest of your life.

9. Such a tragedy. God Bless His Mom and his team…

10. They don't look thick enough..

11. The weight of the lawer body and heavy head gear is not good in a fall. All sports tend to be too violent today. It's supposed to be fun for young kids not professional play offs.

12. I have never skate. If the skate is Sharp enough to cut someone’s neck open, does that fabric protector really work?

13. When I was little I saw someone's chin and lips get cut open by someone else's skate. This is absolutely horrifying.
    Rest In Paradise!

14. Wow! That is a horrible way to die. The other kid who was involved in this accident probably needs counseling. The guilt he feels must be tremendous.

15. That think teddy would have been mad at that petition

16. Anyone seen blades of glory.. this reminds me of that.

17. Wow! That is a horrible way to die. The other kid who was involved in this accident probably needs counseling. The guilt he feels must be tremendous.

18. Ive always wondered about stuff like this RIP smh

19. Had literally no idea you could die this way.

20. Man cannot convince his 9 year old son to wear a neck guard as he wears a mask around his chin. Go figure.

21. Striature out of the new Final Destination movie ….

22. I wasn't there but it takes a lot to slash someones' neck with a skate. No-one has died from this in Canada.
    Ahhh… all those online, inside, afraid to go outside, tender little baby-heart and drug amplified feelings,
    now wireless, are going to drive hysteria about needing a neck guard. They're not regulated for use here.

23. Play football! Safer

24. I thought hockey made new guidelines once Clint Malarchuk got his throat cut in an NHL game.

25. This has happen before, so sad to see it happen again.

26. Honestly get rid of all sports they only teach you to be morons and douchebags

27. let’s not forget an NHL player was slashed in the neck while warming up

    rest in paradise Teddy

28. A tragic death? Slaughtering little babies is tragic
