the goalie's name was Clint Malarchuk. he played for the Buffalo Sabres. no he did not die, but they say that if he'd been on the other end of the rink when it happened that the doctor probably wouldn't have gotten to him and his severed jugular vein in time. he would have bled to death right there on the ice. I've seen the game footage and it was really scary and disgusting. i used to play goalie and a skate across the throat or a slapshot to the throat that could crush your windpipe (they didn't have the neck shields like they do now) was always in the back of your mind.

Looks like Phoenix got the story wrong too.
There is a big difference between your jugular vein and your carotid artery.
Clint was likely a victim of shattered confidence as much as anything. Once a situation like this happens to you, it is pretty tough to NOT anticipate a collision during every breakaway or odd man rush, etc.
That is no way to play goal.

i don't be attentive to lots approximately parenting. yet what i be attentive to is that he for sure would not see him as an authoritative determine. you ought to locate a manner of exhibiting him who's boss. in spite of the reality that this is now no longer politically desirable, if he does something naughty u ought to slap or hit him (for sure no longer difficult) merely adequate so he sees u are indignant and do away with a number of his privileges. if he persists, do away with television and placed him on a weight loss plan of bread and water. bu in spite of this, at 9, u could be able to take a seat him down and clarify to him that wat he's doing is incorrect. and if a grown up have been to do this they could get into massive complication with the police and so on. if the difficulty persists he could have a habit ailment like ADHD or something. so possibly getting some outdoors help could benefit him. sturdy success :)

Clint Malarchuk NO
on March 22, 1989 between the visiting St. Louis Blues and Malarchuk's Buffalo Sabres. Steve Tuttle of the Blues and Uwe Krupp of the Sabres collided at the mouth of the goal, and Tuttle's skate caught Malarchuk on the neck, slicing open his external carotid artery. With pools of blood collecting on the ice, Malarchuk somehow left the ice under his own power with the assistance of his team's trainer, Jim Pizzutelli. Many spectators were physically sickened by the sight with seven fainting and two suffering heart attacks while two teammates vomited on the ice [1] [2]. Local television cameras covering the game instantly cut away from the sight of Malarchuk.
Amazingly, he returned to practice 4 days later. And a week after that, he was back between the pipes against the Quebec Nordiques. "Doctors told me to take the rest of the year off, but there was no way," Malarchuk says. "The longer you wait, the harder it's going to be."
Malarchuk spent only one night in the hospital, and was back on the ice with his team two weeks later. However, his performance declined over the next few years, to the point that Malarchuk left the NHL. He battled obsessive-compulsive disorder (attributed to his injury) for a time, but he eventually returned to hockey, in the International Hockey League. After retiring as a player, Malarchuk continued his hockey career as a coach.
Clint Malarchuk was a goaltending coach for the Florida Panthers during the season 2002-2003. Malarchuk was signed as the goaltending coach for the 2006-2007 season by the Columbus Blue Jackets.

No, he even skated off the ice on his own power, which is pretty amazing.
He did have some problems with alcohol and depression later in life and I think he attempted suicide at least once. But he's apparently got that sorted out now, good for him.
