Thursday (Video of a terrible slash to the head in girls' hockey) edition: Wha' Happened?

August 7, 2014 at 3:10PM

Here's footage from Puck Daddy of one of the worst on-ice assaults we have ever seen — and it came in a U16 girls' hockey game.

It happened in a game between a U.S. select team and a Russian team in Hungary. Basically it's a two-handed slash to the head, and very fortunately the player who was clubbed is OK.
