Video: Shawn Thornton Gets 40 stitch Wound In Face From Skate, Wants At Hawks Bench


During the second period of Tuesday night’s Bruins Blackhawks game Shawn Thornton on the Bruins was cut in the head by the skate of Fernando Pisani.  The cut was purely accident and left behind a wound that took 40 stitches to close above his eye. 

After taking the skate to the face Thornton got up and was skating off the ice while bleeding profusely when he heard something from the Chicago bench that made him attempt to get at them before the linesman stepped in.
