Pretty nasty - he'll regret that.

On the other hand, JR has given alot in his career and has always been one of my favorite players.


WHAT IT FEELS LIKE...to Shatter Your Jaw
By Jeremy Roenick, 34, center, Philadelphia Flyers | Aug 01 '04

I've broken probably about twenty bones in my life. I've broken both wristsone twice and one three timesand I've broken my arm once. I've broken all my fingers, three or four of my toes. I broke my ankle once. Broke my nose eight times. It's amazing they still keep me on TV. I got hit earlier this season by a puck in my cheekbone during practice and had to get twenty-seven stitches and got a slight concussion. But shattering my jaw was by far the most painful.

It was the third period of a game in February this season, just a couple of minutes in. We were playing the Rangers at Madison Square Garden, and I had just lost a face-off in my own zone to the left of the goaltender. I lost sight of the puck, and it went right back to their defenseman, who wound up, took three strides, and stepped into a slap shot that got away from him. I actually saw the puck about three or four inches from my face. It was just a blur, just like a shadow in the corner of my eye. It was gonna hit me right in the mouth...




They'd have to pay me millions to do that. Ouch!
