Statts 4 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Anaheim's Chris Pronger was struck in the face and throat by Visnovsky's slap shot 48 seconds into overtime and left the ice, but the injury wasn't serious. "The majority of the puck hit him in the chin, so we were fortunate in that respect," Ducks coach Randy Carlyle said. "It didn't do as much damage as we thought it did at first." http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/recap?gid=2007021825&prov=ap I was watching this game and it was one of those moments where you go OHHH S^#T!!! glad its not too serious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vincanni 1 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Might have been a real problem had he been the size of a normal human. Seems he has some awful luck with taking shots in the wrong places. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GuloGulo 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Funny how Pronger, like five seconds after I've started to respect him as a competitor, makes a total monkey out of himself by laying a Jupiter size crock on a fanatic fanbase like Edmonton... Oh Chrissy P, why do you do the things you do? P.S I wouldn't shed a tear if he was knocked cold by an errant puck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey, ya never know, Chelly once said he'd never be a wing and now he's been one for nearly 8 years. Have you lost your F'ing mind!?!?!?!? Your first choice is to get Claude Lemieux but if you can't talk him out of retirement you'll take Pronger? What are you, a Maple Leaf fan? The only winged wheel on him should be the imprint left from running the prick over. Edited February 19, 2007 by NomadFromKazoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 (edited) I was watching that game last night when it happened, and you could almost hear and feel the puck hit his face. It looked really bad. Edited February 19, 2007 by Never Forget Mac #25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are just some guys you'd rather hate, even if you know you would love them if they played for the Wings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
auxlepli 17 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Pronger must have bad karma or something. He seems to have weird things like that happen to him. Remember the time when he was with the Blues in the playoffs against the Wings, he took a puck to the chest and then collapsed? Weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like he mentioned, Chelios used to be at least as hated as Pronger before he joined Detroit. Pronger is huge, nasty, and a great defenseman. Why would you not want a guy like that on your team? He's done nothing to a Wings player that puts him in the ranks of Claude Lemieux. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
