Hawks prospect survives scary injury
The third day of the Blackhawks' prospects camp ended early Wednesday when defenseman Simon Danis-Papin hit the ice face-first with a scary neck injury. Danis-Papin, at 6-7 the tallest player in the Hawks' organization, collided with a teammate early in the third period of a scrimmage. He was largely motionless while trainer Mike Gapski and his staff administered medical treatment for about 20 minutes. After the other players were sent off the ice, Danis-Papin was taken by ambulance to Loyola Hospital, where he was to have X-rays taken. Gapski said the hospital trip was precautionary.

Yeah, I know what you mean, DCruiser, sometimes the stories and pictures don't match at all.

Remember how a face plant ruined Kevin Stevens after he was hit by Islanders Rich Pilon's visor?
Stevens was never the same after that.

I always blamed it on Bonnie myself.
Brother Brett couldn't take a hit either.

I would watch a Pay-Per-View of the Lindros brothers and President Bush on Jeopardy. It would take all night though

I hope he's ok. I loved watching him play while he was at UMaine- nothing like see all 6'7" of him come bearing down on anyone with the puck and watching them panic. :)
The Blackhawks definitely picked up a quality player.

That hit Stevens took was nasty. Very nasty in fact. I used to like his style of play up until that hit. I agree,Hank,he wasnt the same after that.
