News about Darnell Nurse

On Wednesday, Edmonton defenseman Darnell Nurse's face was bloodied from a self-inflicted wound, giving a tragic analogy for the Oilers' early season struggles. When nurse Terry Johnson took a wrist shot that deflected off the crossbar and straight back to his face, he was warming up in Raleigh ahead of the game against the Carolina Hurricanes. Sadly, the NHL veteran wasn't wearing his helmet, which may have prevented the puck from smashing into his nose. Nurses raced over to the tunnel to return to the locker room before returning with a bloody face and cotton in each nostril. Nurse lived up to the sport's greatest myth ('he's a hockey player,') while losing 6-3.
