Logan Couture shakes off blow to face, scores twice for Sharks

Logan Couture is already playing with many of his teeth awry after taking a puck to his face on March 25 and he’ll require extensive dental surgery after the postseason is over.

Then the Sharks forward, his lower teeth held in place by wires and his upper teeth by plastic bonding, took a high stick to the face from Drake Caggiula halfway through the first period Tuesday, smacked right in his already tender mouth. He’d abandoned the cage-style facial covering for a half-visor the previous game, and “I got hit in the teeth again,” Couture said.
