BREAKING: NHL Superstar First Player To Wear Neck Guard After Adam Johnson's Death

Neck guards have never been a hotter topic than they are now. Similarly, the idea of wearing them in NHL games has become more popular than ever and tonight we saw the first player take the plunge, Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin.

Dahlin was seen wearing the new gear tonight as his Sabres took on the Philadelphia Flyers. The game is currently tied during the first intermission at 2 goals a piece. Dahlin is currently on an eight-game point streak. A point tonight would extend it to nine games, putting him in lofty company among Sabres defensemen.
