BUFFALO, N.Y. (Feb. 16) - Florida Panthers forward Richard Zednik has left the hospital and returned to Florida less than a week after he was slashed in the throat by a teammate's skate. Zednik went home Friday after being released Thursday evening, officials at Buffalo General Hospital said. Zednik lost five pints of blood when he was accidentally sliced by the skate of teammate Olli Jokinen in a game against the Sabres.

Zednik's sitaution was not first time...it was first happened on Buffalo Sabres goalie, Clint Malarchuk near two decades ago. That Clint's got me near shat when his blood poured on the ice.

Zednik's choice - not wear neack brace protection when back on the ice.

I used to boo on him and his Montreal Canadiens to play against my fan, Boston Bruins because he killed Bruins in the playoff all the time. Still, I admires his talent playing and tough player, too.
