I guess there are special stipulations if someone is seriously injured.

While we're on the topic of player protection, I always wondered why players would want to wear tiny visors. I mean, if you're going to wear something, why not full-face protection? A partial visor doesn't do the whole job - in Saku Koivu's case, it might've made matters worse than had he not worn a visor at all.

Tell me about it! I remember when Heatley suffered a broken orbital bone, during the lockout I think it was, because he wore his visor closer to his forehead than his eyes
