Pittsburgh Penguins right winger Pascal Dupuis pulled out two of his teeth after taking a high stick to the face during Wednesday night's game against the Bruins, yet he didn't miss a shift.
Ironically, Dupuis was whacked accidentally by his own teammate, as defenseman Kris Letang got him in the mouth. Dupuis returned to the bench, pulled his teeth out, and came back out on the ice for his next shift as if nothing happened. You can't say these hockey players aren't tough.
Dupuis was credited with an assist on a second period goal to help the Penguins beat the Bruins 3-2.
