I think

The beginning of the Keith article could have also looked like this:
“CHICAGO — With seven fewer teeth to protect after a puck hit him in the mouth, Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Duncan Keith has decided to see what the Flyer’s gloves smell like during the Stanley Cup finals.”
Heh, I noticed more people face-washing Walt after he lost his teeth… and those were just regular season games, lol.

Face washes after every whistle.

Carcillo’s probably working on the Mallrats-chocolate-pretzel gloves, just for “Dunky”.

(Seriously… having another player rub his glove over all your exposed nerve endings and tooth sockets has to be a pretty painful experience. I can see how that might get a body off his normal game.)

Seriously??

lol, seriously? You’re going to make fun of the Machine, known as Duncan Keith? You’re going to insult him for deciding not to wear a faceplate? You’re a braver man than I, magoo.
