Takes an errant puck to the nose. Goes down, it's run time we're down a goal. Burns half the remaining time getting off the ice, going back to the bench.
Sucks he got hurt, glad he was ok for the handshake line, but put on a f-ing cage man! I pay money for my icetime, and you're a straight MORON for not wearing one in crappy beer league. An inch lower and you're in for a grand of dental reconstruction.
Could equally argue they should stop the clock with injury, but the league rules are what they are.

I have a guy that doesn't wear #### all, no visor or cage.
I mean we are a rugby team that has put together a hockey team, but come on be smart.
I used to wear a visor but just recently put on a cage because of a near miss.
