Remembering the Dackell Hit



With Anton Volchenkov's gruesome forehead injury making the news, it reminded me of the time Andreas Dackell got crushed by Eric Lindros and got knocked unconscious just over ten years ago. I promised to post the photo if I found it and lo and behold, it pays to keep old clippings. The after-effects of the hit are visible above and make Volchenkov's facial injury look like a mild case of acne in comparison.

It's pretty sick, so be warned.
