Unmasked: Goalies understand risk of losing front teeth
Most say they're comfortable with level of protection

Missing front teeth might be one of the most cliched signs of being a hockey player, but contrary to popular belief, NHL goalies are not excluded from this club.

Their fancily adorned full face masks may cover the mouth area, unlike the helmets worn by skaters. Yet when rising pucks catch them the right way in the mask, it can feel like being punched in the mouth. And sometimes, perhaps more than most realize, the bottom edge of the mask's face opening is slammed up hard enough to knock some -- or at least parts of some -- teeth out.

It doesn't even need to be a slap shot.

"Mine aren't fully lost but both of my front teeth are capped in the middle," said Jake Allen of the Montreal Canadiens. "A wrist shot hit the mask and it came up and hit the top of my teeth in morning skate. It wasn't ideal, but it was all right. Just fill them in for now and I'll fix it when hockey is over. There's no point in doing it now."

That's because Allen knows there's always a chance another shot catches his mask and drives the lower chin portion into his top teeth.

Goalies seem more aware of the possibility after Ben Bishop lost his front teeth while making a save for the Tampa Bay Lightning against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Oct. 25, 2016. He admitted at the time he was shocked.

Craig Anderson of the Buffalo Sabres was also surprised the first time it happened to him, but after losing his front teeth three times in 20 NHL seasons, the 41-year-old knows the risks better than most.

"You always knew you would get hit in the mask but, yes, assuming teeth 'should' be safe,'" Anderson said.

Most goalies prefer to be as "deep" in their masks as possible because sightlines improve the closer their face is to the metal cage bolted onto the shell of the mask. That means there isn't much of a gap between the lower portion of that shell and the mouth of the person wearing it.

The combination of shots travelling up to 100 miles an hour with give in the chin cup that helps hold the mask in place -- and some goalies wear a looser fitting chin sling instead -- can lead to a trip to the dentist.

You don't even need to play in the NHL to learn that lesson the hard way.

Casey DeSmith of the Pittsburgh Penguins has heard of countless incidents.

"My buddy, in summer skate, it happened twice in the same summer," DeSmith said. "He got it fixed and it happened again. I think it's the result of the way the helmet sits on your face. Mine sits far away but I know other goalies where the middle bar is almost touching their nose. That means the bottom is right there, so if you get a really hard one on the chin, it pushes up that chin right into your mouth. Mine sits far enough away where if I get hit in the chin, it kind of just shock absorbs it."

New Jersey Devils goalie Mackenzie Blackwood lost several teeth after taking a one-timer off the mask from hard-shooting New York Islanders defenseman Ryan Pulock on Jan. 7, 2020. Along with Bishop's lost tooth in 2016, it's the example most current goalies point to when it comes to knowing the risks, yet most seem comfortable with their level of protection.

Semyon Varlamov of the Islanders, who chipped a tooth when he was 16 and didn't have as good of a mask, and Winnipeg Jets backup goalie David Rittich, who also had a tooth chipped by a shot when he was younger, are not overly concerned about the possibility of losing teeth now.

Dallas Stars goalie Jake Oettinger said he's more worried about getting hit on the bench after a player was hit into it. That sliced open his finger when he was 15, requiring surgery.

"The helmets are so good now it would have to be a crazy fluke thing," Oettinger said. "I'm terrified sitting on the bench. I wear both my gloves, I'm always ready to go. I'm way more scared about that."

The risk of taking a shot off the mask has never been higher, however, even from friendly fire in practices.

In an era when goalies spend more time either dropping to, or moving on, their knees in the butterfly and players with increasingly hard shots are taught to aim high, goalies regularly experience the smell of burning rubber from shots that graze their mask, leaving behind black marks and an unmistakable odor.

"At least once every practice I want to say, and it really does smell like burned rubber, just like from a racing track," said Jonas Johansson, a goalie with Colorado of the American Hockey League, an affiliate of the Colorado Avalanche. "You get some bad ones that hit the face once in a while, but I haven't lost any teeth yet, so fingers crossed."

If it does happen, at least goalies get a chance to show they too are "hockey-player tough."

Neither Bishop nor Blackwood left the game after losing their teeth to shots.

"If I got hit and (teeth) came out, I think it would kind of look cool," Oettinger said.

John Klingberg appeared headed for the Trade Bait board soon after signing a one-year contract with the Anaheim Ducks in the off-season, and has now taken another step towards likely being dealt ahead of the March 3 trade deadline.

TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun notes that Klingberg has submitted his 10-team approved trade list to the Ducks, though he could still accept a trade to a team who didn't make the cut.

"(Klingberg) had a full no-trade [clause] until Jan. 1 and has now submitted that 10-team list because it is now a modified no-trade," LeBrun explained on Insider Trading Thursday. "Ten teams that he could be traded to without him needing to waive his clause.

"The reality is Klingberg will want to go to a contender, so if it's a team that makes the best offer to the Anaheim Ducks that actually isn't on that 10-team list, I think that his reps at Newport Sports will want to work with Anaheim to get that best deal to get him on a playoff team. So I'm not sure that the 10-team list is paramount in this case as opposed to one of those 16 teams headed to the postseason."

The 30-year-old defenceman has five goals and 13 points in 35 games this season with the Ducks, who are currently third last in the NHL standings. He carries a $7 million cap hit on the one-year deal he signed with the Ducks in the summer.

LeBrun reported last month that Klingberg was among the blueline options the Edmonton Oilers have discussed internally ahead of the deadline.

A fifth-round pick of the Stars in 2011, Klingberg had spent his entire career in Dallas before signing with the Ducks. He has 76 goals and 387 points in 587 NHL games.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, he wanted out of Dallas and now he wants out of Anaheim :- :-

Beloved Canucks legend Gino Odjick dies aged 52
As the Vancouver Canucks battled in Carolina to salvage a five-game road trip with their first win of 2023, news of a great loss for the organization started to spread.

Wayne “Gino” Odjick, one of the most popular players to ever wear a Canucks uniform, had died at the age of 52.

Our hearts are broken,” his sister Dina wrote on Facebook Sunday as she announced news of his passing. “My brother Gino Odjick has left us for the spirit world.”

The beloved enforcer had been battling health issues for nearly a decade after being diagnosed with Amyloidosis, a rare disease that affects the heart and other organs, in 2014.

At the time, doctors said Odjick may only have weeks to live, and he penned an open letter to Canucks fans thanking them for their support throughout his career.

"Your 'Gino, Gino' cheers were my favourite. I wish I could hear them again. You have been amazing," he wrote.

Born on the Algonquin reserve of Kitigan Zibi, just outside the town of Maniwaki, Que., Odjick played eight seasons in Vancouver after being drafted by the Canucks in 1990.

He became an instant fan-favourite and, somewhat unexpectedly, a close friend and linemate of superstar Pavel Bure.

Odjick still holds the Canucks record for most penalty minutes in franchise history with 2,127.

“Gino was a fan favourite from the moment he joined the organization, putting his heart and soul into every shift on and off the ice,” said Canucks owner Francesco Acquilini on Sunday.

“He inspired many and embodied what it means to be a Canuck. Personally, he was a close friend and confidant, someone I could lean on for advice and support. He will be deeply missed.”

Odjick was an inspiration to many First Nation hockey players, including current Canuck Ethan Bear who had a big goal in Sunday’s win against his former team.

The 25-year-old said he did not learn of Odjick’s death until Canucks trainer Brian (Red) Hamilton told him shortly after the team came off the ice after Elias Pettersson’s shootout winner.

“I got a little teary-eyed after Red told me,” said Bear. “It was really emotional, definitely tough.”

And Bear was far from the only person feeling emotional on Sunday, as tributes poured in for Odjick from all over the hockey world.

From former teammates like Stan Smyl to current players to fans, Odjick's impact and popularity was plainly visible with the news of his passing on Sunday.
