A wrist shot to the ear from 3 feet away while you're lying on the ice... hurts like hell.

Ear was a little cut up, not too much blood, but plenty of swelling. It's about twice the size if it should be, whole side of my head is bruised up and definitely got a headache.

Ouch.

Uh dude, in hokey it is not a good thing to find yourself lying on the ice when people are trying to slap that puck around. :hammersma

Glad it wasn't worse, like your eye.

Haha.Yeah, I dove after the puck to keep it in the offensive zone and get it to our sniper, he just happened to try and fire it over me and caught be in the head when he misfired the shot.

I do wear a half shield, so I'm more worried about my teeth.

Ouch!! Be sure to see a doctor if the headache continues--concussions can be dangerous.

At least you'll have a cool battle wound for a little while :)

Fortunately the headache was gone this morning. Got a little extra sleep and feel fine.

Though, most of the right side of my face is a bit puffy and bruised. Ear is still a little swollen. Ah well, I'll survive.

Just glad I wasn't bleeding, no major head damage, and I was able to finish the game.

I've been punched in the ear and that hurt like hell. I can only imagine what it's like taking a flying hunk of solid frozen rubber to the ear. Damn dude that hurts just thinking about it. You didn't stare too long at his wife or anything did ya?
