Provost Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 As per Gino... this dude had his femoral artery completely severed. Gino Reda @GinoRedaTSN With the Femoral Artery completely severed, he immediately grabbed a towel and applied pressure when emergency medical help arrived. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=416503 He owes Peluso his life... you have about 2 minutes before you bleed out. It is literally the worst blood vessel to cut in your entire body aside from your aorta itself. (way worse than jugular and even worse than carotid). Most volume of blood goes through there than anywhere and it is really hard to get enough pressure on it because of the size of the thigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 I guess pretty soon we will be talking about Kevlar leotards instead of socks! Maybe Under Armour can come up with something... or they could have the outer uniform sock and the pants be of cut resistant fabric. That could possibly alleviate some of the comfort issues the players have talked about with the socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edlerberry Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Shannahan should suspend the coaching staff as well as the player who injured him. No injury shall go unpunished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobble Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Sad to see him go down in such a way. He was having a very respectable rookie season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
