The Most HORRIFIC Injuries In The NHL Fans Have Ever Seen..
Welcome back to Sport Soar. Hockey players are some of the toughest people in the world, but they’re only human. Devastating, and even life-threatening, accidents have happened throughout professional hockey history. Here are the five worst NHL injuries ever. In Game 6 of the 1996 Western Conference Finals, Avalanche forward (and noted goon) Claude Lemieux checked Red Wings forward Kris Draper from behind, driving Draper’s face into the boards. He suffered a broken jaw along with shattered cheek and orbital bones which required reconstructive surgery and numerous stitches. This incident is widely considered the genesis of the Avalanche – Red Wings rivalry that exploded on March 26, 1997 with the “Brawl in Hockeytown,” in which nine different fights occurred.
On Mar. 8, 2004, during the third period of what was a 9-2 blowout victory by Steve Moore’s Avalanche over Todd Bertuzzi’s Canucks, the latter attempted to instigate a fight. Moore attempted to skate away, but Bertuzzi chased him and sucker punched him from behind. Moore was knocked unconscious and fell face-first on the ice. He fractured three neck vertebrae and suffered a concussion, and was never able to play again. A civil lawsuit against Bertuzzi and the Canucks was settled over 10 years after the incident on Aug. 19, 2014. Video of the incident itself is hard to find, but Bill Masterton’s fatal head injury suffered on Jan. 13, 1968 is widely considered the darkest moment in NHL history. He is the only NHL player to die from an on-ice injury. Masterton was converged upon by two defenders at the same time – Larry Cahan and Ron Harris of the Oakland Seals – and was sent directly onto the back of his head. Like many players at the time, Masterton was not wearing a helmet. He was knocked unconscious and died 30 hours later. The Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, awarded annually to the player who, “best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey,” was named in his honor.

“Despite hockey’s CALM appearance…” ? Lol. When has hockey ever seemed calm?
Bless hockey players. As a figure skater, I've watched a few practices. Hockey looks easy, but god, its scary to watch. Some of these injuries are honestly why I can't date a hockey boy. I couldn't beat to livewith the fear of my loved one getting so severely injured every time they'd have a game.
The unlucky month
I was horrified after finding out the thumbnail was actually real and not a clickbait
CLINT SURVIVED THAAAAAAAT?
Guy's a bad ass
For someone who broke their jaw fixed it themselfs and then carried on playing is a true champion
Frankly getting injured or hit in the jaw no more exists because nowadays the rules have changed. But the player who got hit below his belt was insane as hell😃
10 puked on the ice? A lot of help they were
for everyone talking about the adam johnson incident, i would just like to say i was there at the arena the night it took place. it was heartbreaking to see that happen. i won't give my opinion on whether it was an accident or not. rip adam fly high – #foreverour47
My brother had a hockey game and then we tied😂😂😂😂
In all fairness Ice hockey is a ground for fighting legally it’s harsh it hurts there hard men who do this game
The most horrifying hockey injury in our league. While chasing a puck, he slammed his head on the wall breaking his neck and dying days later. This incident forced the officials to change the rules for Icing calls. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lud%C4%9Bk_%C4%8Cajka
Um of course Hockey is one of the most dangerous sports they have sharp blades attached to there feet!!!!!
Rip Adam Johnson
The committee and organizers of Hokey league should revisit their game rules and guidelines. Too much physicality and serious injury are endured by players. ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼
I know one player landed on a goalie’s skate (shoulder) and another player pulled him off, and proceeded to pull him off the ice.
Yes, there was a massive fight that the skate-cut guy wanted to be part of!
It pains me that some people will LITERALLY wait until something bad happens before enforcing new rules and regulations that should've been there from the beginning.
2:06 – Those are football fans.
I had to stop watching this shit.
Why the clickbait?
Rip Adam Johnson 😥🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🪦🪦❤️
God bless jim pizzutelli
I hate this sport. I wish they would ban it altogether.
He died on the ice? You mean 3 days later in the hospital? That ice?
For the William Masterston’s death, it’s not his fault or anyone’s fault but he probably would’ve survived if he was wearing a helmet.
RIP ADAM JOHNSON.i cried watching Pittsburgh Penguins as they paid tribute to Adam at their 1st game after the tragedy.i am a Penguins fan and was so shocked and saddened by this.
The first one scary and nasty
One of the worst videos repays I have ever seen or didn't see!!!!! Where's the video injuries!!!??? He talk about them but no show of them!!!!👎👎👎👎👎👎
The neck..
Sadly Börje Salming died in 2022 😔
Neck guards should be mandatory for ALL ice sports involving more that 1 person being on the ice.
Unfortunately ice sports are dangerous and you need to be aware of not only yourself and others around you, but your blades, sticks, whatever you use while on the ice.
You can fall, cut someone etc. Those blades are SHARP. Be careful, be aware of who's around you, wear appropriate gear to protect your body.
A figure skating pair, the man accidentally hit his partners face with his blade during the olympics, she was okay luckily but scarred, literally. Wear butt pads for jumps while training, wear neck guards during hocket. Etc.
RIP to those who died…
how sad
I can’t believe the pain that man must have endured, having his jaw broken like that. I have felt terrible jaw pain from surgeries, and it’s quite overwhelming. I can’t imagine how he managed to stay in the game!
I play hockey so I know how dangerous it is
“Despite it’s calm appearance…”
Man, I don’t know what you’ve been smoking but you need to share that 💩!
NOOOOO, THE SECOND ONE HAPPENED ON MY EXCACT DATE OF BIRTH- (3-8-2011)-
Hockey is the hardest sport out there fighting and skating insane great sport though but def need neck guards as ap
Go to Highlight Harbor. It has a clearer video and play it at 0.25 he did this on purpose! His skate did not hit the other players' skate and he had Adam in his sight from the beginning! It is MURDER!
Petgrave needs to pay for this!! Can’t just murder someone on national television and pretend it was an accident!
Hockey players are some tough motherfuckers dude
What the hell was that spinning rollarcaoster ride of confusion?
Adam Johnson just heard abt it tonight that's absolutely horrible I watched the video and that's so upsetting
And this is why I have never watched hockey.
The last one I’m sorry that he broke his jaw a lot of times but that’s a struggle. That’s why I don’t play hockey. I’m just scared to play hockey because I don’t know how to skate or other stuff.
I went to a hockey game recently and I remember having a little thing for him.
May he rest in piece. 🙏
O
2:11 He didn’t just get a concussion. His head was turned backwards.
Rip Adam Johnson. He was recently slit through the neck on ice and was announced dead in the hospital.
Wow, you only said Bill Masterton's name right once out of five tries. Good job.
Marca 22 IS my bday…
0:32 😂😂😂
You put the wrong picture of ‘Steve Tuttle.’ That is a picture of my father. Lmao. My Dad is an investment manager, not the NHL player. You can’t make this shit up.
