Sharks’ Logan Couture thought he lost testicle on puck to groin
Logan Couture was in a world of pain after being nailed in the groin with a puck during Friday night’s game.
The San Jose Sharks center went down to block a Cody Eakin shot during Game 2 of the team’s first-round playoff series with the Vegas Golden Knights. He blocked it successfully but paid a price.

Protective cup or not, that is going to hurt.
“I thought I lost my testicle,” Couture said after the 5-3 loss.

The only thing worse than taking a loss in the game is getting hit in the nuts and then losing on top of it.
The teams will meet in Vegas on Sunday with the series tied 1-1.
