Fan Hit By Puck That Flies Through Camera Hole In Plastic [VIDEO]
DETROIT -- What are the odds? For one Red Wings fan Saturday night -- let's just say the odds just weren't in his favor.
As the Red Wings battled the Colorado Avalanche -- an errant puck flew through the air and made its way through a hole -- just wide enough to house the lens of a professional still camera -- hitting a fan in the face.
That shot by #Avalanche Beauchemin went right through the camera hole and hit a #RedWings fan, who is now holding a towel to his face. #ouch

While bloodied, the man appeared to have not been seriously injured, even managing to keep hold of a drink during the scene in which the Avalanche's Beauchemin was clearing the puck during gameplay.
