ZEDNIK SURVIVES COLLAPSING ROOF

It was a close call for Richard Zednik.

In a report Monday, the former NHLer was on the ice in Námestovo, Slovakia training with some young hockey players moments before the roof of the arena collapsed. The ice rink couldn't support the weight of snow, causing the roof to cave in.

The video shows Zednik taking shots on the goaltender and a few seconds later the roof of the building begins to collapse as the players are just getting off the ice.

Why couldn't this have been the Wings practice facility.

Can you imagine how long Shanny would have suspended the general contractor?

In Soviet Russia, building collapses on you!

Zednik and Malarchuck should probably just build a completely accident-prone house and go live in it together. Those guys always end up in weird situations.

Didn't Malarchuck attempt suicide and fail a couple years ago? Or was it a gun cleaning accident?

It was supposedly an accident.

Jesus, Zednik can't have a moment of calm, poor guy. Glad he's ok, always seemed like a real nice dude.

You hope it was an accident. If you feel that your life sucks and you want to kill yourself because you can't do anything right, how bad would you feel if you tried to kill yourself and failed horribly at that as well?
