Zach Werenski Had Himself A Hell Of A Night

What a night for Zach Werenski. Let’s review and see how it went for the 19 year old defenseman for the Blue Jackets.

First:

Werenski scored! He potted his first career playoff goal, which funny enough got stuck on the camera, which confused the shit out of the ref so he originally waved it off. But that’s just where his night got started.

Second:

Not great! He took a puck to the face, and dripping blood everywhere as the play continued…which the Penguins scored on. Should the play have been halted so he could get medical assistance? Some say yes, some say no, you could argue both sides for days.

But then:

He is risen! What do you even do? Take 15 Advil and an 8 ball and get back out on the ice? Onions on the kid.

Unfortunately he couldn’t play OT though, because well, you saw the picture.

Unfortunately for Werenski (and me), the Jackets lost in OT because Sidney Crosby is a masterfully skilled son of a bitch who gives me nightmares

But the fact he played when his face had blown up like a Thanksgiving Day balloon is pretty awesome. What a night for Zach Werenski, an Easter he will never forget.
