Buffalo Sabres' defenseman Owen Power received a puck to the face and had to leave the game in blood.

In the final period of the Atlantic Division clash between the Sabres and the Detroit Red Wings, Owen Power was hit in the face by a puck.

David Perron was stainding behind the goal line and hit Power after he shot the puck. It's hard to say from the video if the puck deflected, but nonetheless, it looks painful.

Power quickly got back on his feet and left the ice on his own.
