That was Clint Malarchuk. That was a very dangerous accident. He could he
died right there on the ice. However, he has played since
but I don't know where he is now. I think he is still playing but I'm
not positive. He was a Sabre at the time.
I don't know who skated into him though.

I remember a couple of seasons before the Malarchuk incident Borje
Salming of Toronto fell down in the crease and someone skated into
his face. That took a lot of stiches to fix.
