Sully unmasked
Patrick O'Sullivan practiced without his full face mask today for the first time since taking a puck to the face Oct. 6. He plans to play without the mask from now on.
``Technically, I should have it on for another week or two,'' O'Sullivan said. ``But if we worried about doctors and technicalities then none of us would be playing hockey. They said it's up to me. I put up with it long enough to let it heal and it's just time to take it off.''
O'Sullivan said he doesn't think the mask affected his game but that it did bother his breathing.
I hope he at least wears a mouth piece.
His day is coming and it's coming soon.
I predict he'll be putting up big numbers shortly. And in bunches.
I wish him the best of luck.
I agree with Anthony (for once)!
Hopefully his outstanding play as of late does not suffer when he takes it off.
Maybe he should keep on wearing it like Richard Hamilton...
