About the only pain the Rangers managed to inflict on Saturday in a lopsided loss to the Sabres was to Buffalo broadcaster — and the team’s former enforcer — Rob Ray.

Rob Ray was placed at ice level to call the game between the two team benches. Late in the first period, a puck went out of play and hit Ray right in the forehead — and he dropped a giant F-bomb on live television: Rob Ray took a puck to the forehead between the benches, but shook it off 😅 pic.twitter.com/E2eBxsn1WM

Sunday’s game against the New York Rangers could hardly have gone better for the Buffalo Sabres, who came away with an 8-2 win. That said, we doubt the day went according to plan for Sabres analyst Rob Ray.

It was a typical day at the office for former NHL tough guy-turned-broadcaster Rob Ray -- taking pucks to the face and getting right back to work. That was the scene Saturday afternoon when Ray -- who spent 14 years as an enforcer for the Buffalo Sabres and now does color commentary between the benches during games -- was hit in the face by a deflected puck during the Sabres' afternoon matchup with the visiting New York Rangers.

If Buffalo Sabres commentator Rob Ray had a nickel for every time he was hit in the face with a hockey puck while working a game, he'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Buffalo Sabres color commentator Rob Ray didn't let a puck to the face keep him from doing his job. During Saturday evening's Buffalo home game against the New York Rangers, Ray took a puck to the face and audibly let out an NSFW reaction as soon as it happened.
