Chilling scene as a Bruins player gets sliced in the face by his opponent's skate

The young forward Jakub Lauko, 23 years old, had the scare of his life when he was hit in the face by a skate blade.

It's probably every player's worst nightmare.

We immediately see his teammate calling for help, and we also see that Lauko had the right instinct, heading straight to his team's bench.

As he mentioned, he was really scared, but Jim Montgomery had good news after the game. Phew.

In fact, the skate's blade support hit the eye, but not the blade itself, which is a huge relief.

It was a close call, but more of a scare than actual harm in his case.
