I didn't witness this, only heard it from the other members of my hockey team.
At our last hockey game, our team won the division playoffs in overtime and will be heading to our leagues first North American Championship tournament in 2009.
After the game was done and all the guys were getting undressed, a guy from the other team was leaving the rink (after getting changed) and decided to kick the glass door that leads out of the rink.
He ended up putting his whole leg through the glass and the glass cut a 2" wide chunk of his muscle off the side of his leg from the knee down to the ankle and went right to the bone.
One of my teammates is training to be a paramedic and helped him as best he could and called 911, but it looks like this guy will never play hockey again.
The moral of the story: Don't kick glass doors.
