NHL player Zach Redmond got a skate to the leg in February, and it has left one hell of a nasty sca, which he was happy to show off.

One of the inherent dangers of playing ice hockey (apart from the ridiculous hits and getting punched in the face every other week) is that you’re skating around on some seriously sharp blades.
That’s a danger that Winnpeg Jets player Zach Redmond found out about first hand back in February when he got a skate right in the leg, and it has left a seriously gnarly scar on his leg.
There is only one reasonable reaction to a seeing a wound like this, which is to respond using the parlance of our times: “Cool scar, bro”.
Incredibly, Redmond is back on the ice just six weeks later, but that wound is far too close to the groin for comfort if you ask us.
