On September 25th in 2007, the
Philadelphia Flyers reckless rookie
Steve Downie delivered a
vicious headshot to
Dean McAmmond rendering the
Ottawa Senators unfortunate forward unconscious.

Downie received a match penalty and
20 game suspension for the second period preseason cheapshot, the
fourth longest in NHL history, surrendering
$63,101.60 in salary. McAmmond
missed 10 games owing to injuries. Downie
apologized to Dean after Ottawa's
4-2 victory.
That's today in NHL history.
