A 19-year-old Russian hockey player has died after being hit in the head by the puck during a game, his club and the league said on Tuesday.
Defenseman Timur Faizutdinov was playing for Dynamo St Petersburg’s junior team in a playoff game against Loko Yaroslavl on Friday when he was struck by a puck hit from the neutral zone.
I recall the first time I saw a game in Vancouver and the puck hit the glass right near us and we all ducked big time.
