Video: Accidental throat slash looks extremely painful.

This looked really, really painful.

St. Louis Blues' forward Jori Lehtera had a bad night on Tuesday in more ways than one. Not only did his St. Louis Blues lose to one of the NHL's weakest teams at the moment,bit he suffered an ugly looking injury.

Early on in the game Lehtera was hit directly across the throat by the stick of Blue Jacket Brandon Saad and he would stay down on the ice for several moments, obviously shaken up.

Here's a look at the video.
