You know that whole “Hockey players are tough” thing that rivets some and annoys others? Add another example to that big file.
When Kyle Turris got tangled up with an opposing player in a scary scene on Saturday, plenty of people wondered if the Ottawa Senators lost their top center for some time.
Apparently some time really just translates to the equivalent of a few shifts, as Turris is remarkably able to participate in Ottawa’s game against the New York Rangers tonight.
#Sens Kyle Turris will play tonight against the Rangers.

Wow. It seems reasonable for mortals to wonder how, exactly, he’s bouncing back so fast.
After the way he went down last night, I only have one explanation for Kyle Turris taking the warmup right now. pic.twitter.com/o6ZQ170aro

Impressive stuff either way.
