Why hockey coaches should wear face shields
Last night during my peewee practice I was being a big tough defender during warm-ups. The player did a backhand scoop of the puck and BAM. Soon after, I noticed a big pool of blood in my hand and on the ice and the end result is 5 stitches and some pretty good bruising. Needless to say, I will be buying a shield before my next practice.
