      Buzz Up PrintVOORHEES, N.J. (AP)—Patrick Thoresen gingerly walks through the Flyers’ locker room, still needs ice to ease swelling in his groin and is unlikely to play in Game 3 of Philadelphia’s playoff series against Washington.

While blocking a shot Friday in Game 1, the Flyers’ forward took a puck to the groin and nearly lost one of his testicles.

He said Monday, when he wasn’t joking about his scary injury to reporters, he would slide in front of a whizzing puck again if he had to block a shot this postseason.

“That’s my job, “Thoresen said. “I’m sacrificing myself for the team. That’s what it’s all about, especially in the playoffs.”

The next time Thoresen has to talk about a cup, he hopes its for hoisting the Stanley Cup and not about the dented, protective one that saved his testicle from removal.

I bet next time he'll be a bit gun shy about blocking a shot with his body rather then letting the goalie do that for them. I suspect that's why goalies wear the thick padding that "Normal" players don't have.
