Barclay Goodrow of the New York Rangers got a puck in his face in an NHL game last week, and now he has told about the harsh consequences of the hit.
Many thought at first that Goodrow “just” lost his teeth on the ice, but the truth is different. A lump of something else fell on the ice.
– I do not know precisely. A piece of my mouth that should still be in my mouth, Goodrow surmised the editor of The Athetic Arthur Staple by.
– So be it, Staple commented on the incident message service in X.
Goodrow said that the fragmentation of the mouth did not feel pleasant at all.
– It felt like my mouth was in a million pieces. I feel better now, he said The New York Post by.
Goodrow only missed one game. He returned to the ice with a full visor to protect his face. Beneath it was a swollen chin and a scarred upper lip.
Even if playing is successful again, the attacker has another, perhaps bigger problem. He can’t eat normally.
– Only liquids for a month. Now I’m trying to figure out how to get protein and all the nutrients I need in a different form, Goodrow told Sportsnet.
