Seguin is not the first NHL player to go through it this season. So far in 2022-23, there have been several such instances of skate lacerations, most notably involving Evander Kane and Ryan Johansen.
TSN Insider Darren Dreger reiterates that NHL General Managers intend to address this issue during their annual meetings over the summer. Cut-resistant under garments could become mandatory to mitigate these occurrences.
Keep an eye on Tyler Seguin. He suffered a bad laceration above his knee tonight. Unrelated, but I know the NHL will take a closer look at these incidents and the protection available to help offset the significance of some, not all, next week at the GM meetings.— Darren Dreger (@DarrenDreger) March 10, 2023
