Referee slewfoots Jeremy Lauzon, almost catches Tanev in the face with his skate
The Seattle Kraken are in Nashville taking on the Predators this afternoon in what ended up being a blowout win for the Kraken, but there also could've been a very scary injury as well.
Brandon Tanev and Jeremy Lauzon had been talking for the majority of the game, but this time when they came together, referee Eric Furlatt while trying to skate over to get between the two, falls and takes out Lauzon in the process, take a look:
Brandon Tanev and Jeremy Lauzon showing more love for each other, and referee Eric Furlatt gets Lauzon with the slew foot. Everybody's ok.
This could've ended really badly for both Tanev and Lauzon, as Lauzon was falling he narrowly misses cutting tanev with his skate.
All three men would end up being okay, but this could've been a very scary situation had lauzon been a centimetre closer to Tanev when he fell.
I know Furlatt was likely an accident, but maybe he should check if his skates need to be sharpened next time, accidental or not, taking out a player while trying to break something up is not good.
