OTTAWA — Erik Karlsson has become the poster boy for cut-resistant hockey socks.

Literally.

Within hours of the Ottawa Senators being sidelined for the season, a photo of Karlsson writhing in pain after his left Achilles tendon was lacerated by the skate of Pittsburgh Penguins forward Matt Cooke was featured on the Tuff-n-Lite Hockey website.

It was a nervy move since Karlsson was not a client of the maker of cut-resistant socks and wrist bands.

However, Tuff-n-Lite’s Montreal born-and-raised founder, David Nerman, said Karlsson was an object lesson because he may not have been seriously injured if he had been wearing cut-resistant socks.

“This injury is serious and it’s sad, but, if it can open up a conversation, like with Sid (Crosby of the Penguins) and concussions, then maybe some good can come out of it,” Nerman said Thursday in an interview from Montreal.

“It’s like the guy who gets his teeth knocked out and says ‘Oh, I should have been wearing a mouthguard.’ Well, he should have been wearing a mouthguard before he got his teeth knocked out.

“It’s like, ‘That is never going to happen to me,’ and then it does.”

Tuff-n-Lite is a division of the Supreme Corporation, a North Carolina-based company that makes engineered yarns (or composite fibres).

Its cut-resistant protective gear is used by 14 National Hockey League teams, including the Senators, four American Hockey League teams and all six Canadian Women’s Hockey League teams.

It’s a big business.

Many companies, including major hockey-equipment manufacturers such as Bauer, Easton and Reebok, market various cut-resistant socks and equipment.

Nerman, who is also an actor, is probably better known as Albert, the manservant angel to Linda Kash in television commercials for Philadelphia Cream Cheese.

An enthusiastic beer-league player, Nerman entered the cut-resistant material business after seeing a couple of horrific injuries in Montreal.

One was to Canadiens defenceman Andrei Markov on Oct. 1, 2009, when he suffered a sliced foot tendon after being cut by the skate of goaltender Carey Price. He missed 35 games.

The other was the season before to forward Robert Lang. He suffered a severed Achilles tendon in his left leg during a contest against the Boston Bruins and missed the final 32 regular-season games and the playoffs.

During his research into fabrics that are commonly used in cut-resistant material, such as Kevlar, Dyneema and Spectra, Nerman came upon the Supreme Corporation, which was making a knitted safety fabric touted as 15 times stronger than steel.

That led to a prototype that Nerman took to the Canadiens — it didn’t hurt that Montreal general manager had been his Outremont baseball coach in the 1970s — and then back to Supreme for modifications.

The rest is more or less history.

Today, Tuff-n-Lite says its socks have the highest cut-resistant rating, Level 4 (on a scale of 5), on the market. (The test involves drawing a blade over the fabric at various loads.)

“If Markov and Lang were wearing this sock, they wouldn’t have missed a game,” Canadiens equipment manager Pierre Gervais told the Montreal Gazette.

Today, about half the Canadiens, including Markov and forward Travis, wear Nerman’s socks. Senators centre Jason Spezza and defenceman Chris Phillips also wear them.

Caroline Ouellette, a veteran of Canada’s women’s team, has worn Tuff-n-Lite socks since being cut on both leg and arm.

Moen was an early convert after getting clipped near the left ankle during a game three years ago. Wearing Nerman’s socks, all he received was a superficial scrape.

Supreme is now expanding the line into protective socks for short-track speedskating and figure skating, but it has still been an uphill battle to get NHL players to wear protective clothing, just as it is to get them to wear face shields.

Hockey players are well known for being superstitious about what they wear. They also don’t easily change what they’ve worn. Manufacturers have taken pains to make their products as comfortable as possible.

“It stinks that there has to be an injury like this for people to take notice,” Nerman said.

“But be it our sock or another sock, they should be wearing some protection.”

Mario Demers, chief operating officer of Ottawa-based Pro-Formance Insights (PFI), which makes safety products for sports and high-risk professions such as police, has faced similar frustrations.

His company’s Bodyarmour line includes protective shirts, pants, and socks.

Former Senators winger Shean Donovan used the equipment and former Binghamton Senators centre Corey Locke still does.

The sad part for Demers is that these discussions about protective equipment only start after someone is hurt.

“No one talked about neck protection until (Buffalo Sabres goalie) Clint Malarchuk almost bled to death after getting his throat cut,” he said.

“And concussions have always been around, but the fear of losing Sidney Crosby got everyone to pay attention. It’s unfortunate. What’s it going to take?”

He’s even more worried about what could happen to a youngster playing a game at his neighbourhood rink.

“The NHL is one thing,” he said. “They have top help for their players. They have doctors at the rink and ambulances are on standby.

“But what happens if it happens to a kid in the middle of nowhere, where there’s no medical attention?”

Demers’ company exhibited its products during the Bell Capital Cup minor hockey tournament, and he said and the reception from parents was enthusiastic.

“When they see it, they get it,” he said.

Senators general manager Bryan Murray said the team could only suggest that players wear cut-resistant equipment.

The NHL team has cut-resistant stocks in stock, just as it has guards that can be worn over skates to reduce the risk of foot injuries caused by pucks.

Murray said he didn’t see many players using the additional protective equipment. Rather, they stick with what they’ve always worn.

“They want to be able to play at a high speed and they think some of this stuff is cumbersome, so they take the risk of not wearing them,” Murray said.

Viiltosukan testauksesta on tarkempi kuvaus alla mutta pääkohdat olivat testissä seuraavat:

• simuloitiin 98 kiloisen pelaajan luistellessa 24 km/h nopeudella
• luistimen terä viiltää ihoa siten että Tuff-n-Lite sukka on päällä testiä tehdessä
• kuvista voi nähdä miten viiltosuojasukka estää tehokkaasti vaarallisen vamman syntymisen
