All I want for Christmas

is my two front teeth!

Hockey players have a far greater risk of losing teeth than most other sports. So much so that the hockey vernacular even has a phrase about it- picking up teeth off the ice is called "picking up chiclets", for example.

Hearing the classic Christmas song on the radio the other day while working on hockey card scans inspired this post.
