Watch: Junior hockey player nearly takes his own head off

Alpena Flyers defenseman Mitchell Skiba has quite the penchant for picking up penalties. So you'd think he's gotten plenty of practice with exiting the ice in style. Or not.

Alpena Flyers defenseman Mitchell Skiba has quite the penchant for picking up penalties, racking up 103 penalty minutes in 18 games. In fact, he's only had two games this season in which he didn't pick up a penalty.

Skiba's been ejected from four games this season, including a game in October where he picked up 20 minutes worth of penalties for "obscene gestures."

So you'd think he's gotten plenty of practice with exiting the ice in style. Or not.
