Dion Phaneuf now wearing Tuff-n-LIte Hockey protection
Dion Phaneuf: Underware model?
From safer stockings to protective longjohns, Dion Phaneuf is taking no chances when it comes to avoiding being sliced open again.
Having been out more than a month after being seriously gashed behind the knee by the skate of Ottawa’s Peter Regin during a Nov. 2 game at the Air Canada Centre, the Maple Leafs captain is testing a variety of preventative equipment options he hopes will keep history from repeating itself.
“I’ve suffered cuts twice in three years that have kept me out of action for extended periods of time so I’m open to anything that will help,” Phaneuf said in the ACC press box during the second intermission of the Leafs-Boston Bruins game Saturday night.
“I think it’s important, especially at the grass-roots level. I remember when they made neck guards a requirement in minor hockey. Maybe some day some of this equipment will help too.”
Various companies including Nike and Tuff-N-Lite Hockey are working on projects to do just that.
Phaneuf has been working out with socks he says “are not cut proof but are more cut resistant.” He also is having long underwear made that should have the same protective effect.
“It’s personal preference for every player,” he said. “But at least these things will give me a fighting chance.”
Given what Phaneuf has been through, that’s all he can ask for.
