And people wonder why we think this is by far the coolest game in the world? What other star in a sport is this tough? http://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/26494148/sharks-pavelski-scores-goal-jaw-loses-teeth This stuff happens all the time in the NHL Tough tough tough tough dudes. If you're not, you're out. Nor did the Sharks believe Pavelski would shy away from going right back to the front of the net. "It takes some balls to get in the paint again," Sharks forward Evander Kane said. Pavelski took regular shifts in skating 16:52 for the game, helping the Sharks take a 1-0 series lead. "Tough as nails," coach Peter DeBoer said. "You take a puck to the face like that. Doesn't go down. There's no other word for it. He's a warrior." The warrior was due to become the patient either Wednesday night or Thursday morning, to get his teeth fixed and to ensure his jaw was in good shape. Whatever the damage, it was worth it. "We like to play this game. It's playoff season," Pavelski said. "We want to play some playoff hockey. Something like that happens early and you just want to get back out there as soon as you can. "We earned that one. And that's a good feeling."
