There is so much talk about the dangers fo skate blades in hockey right now, that you'd think something like this would never happen. However, to everyone's surprise, it has.

While his opponent gave him a few shoves, he decided to use his feet to try and get him off, which is unthinkable.

Must read on Hockey OTB

Its hard to tell whether Frk intentionally or unintentionally was swinging his feet around, however, the one angle of the incident looks terrible.

Supplimental Punishment Incoming for Frk

Frk was ejected from the game for the play, which was absolutely the right thing to do even if it was unintentional, as there needs to be some responsibility on the player to have control of his blades in this circumstance.
