As reported by Katie Strang in Newsday this morning, Brendan Witt was struck by a car this morning, on his way to get a Starbucks this morning on Arch Street in Philadelphia.
He saw the car making an illegal left turn, braced for impact, got hit, fell to the ground, gave the driver a few words that could probably only be said in Philadelphia, brushed himself off, and proclaimed that he is a ‘hockey player’ and has a game tonight.
He was out in practice this morning, and should play tonight – with a little soreness.
The question, was he wearing a cape?
A Versus game tonight – should be interesting to hear what they say about this team on national television. Hopefully good things.
Have a great day, and will talk about the game tomorrow.
