[QUOTE="SerchforPerch, post: 386589, member: 2585"] AJ was at least 6-2' on skates. Anyone that played hockey knows how difficult it would be to spin in the air doing a roundhouse style kick to someone's chest would be, yet to the head/neck area. Defenseman that get beat or skated around will toss out all kinds of tricks to prevent a score, hence why they spend alot of time in the box. There was obviously intent to take AJ away from the play, and coming in skates high and claiming it was an "accident" is complete B.S. - the intent was there. Its too bad that it takes a catastrophic event to make safety equipment mandatory - hopefully this will open some eyes. Neck guards are uncomfortable but maybe this will give companies a reason to re-engineer the current design to make something better. Same as mouth guards - they serve a purpose yet you see the pros chewing on them most of the time - half out of their mouths or not wearing them at all, and then what do you see kids doing? The same thing. [/QUOTE]
