Toronto Maple Leaf Mitchell Marner's amazing salt smelling gif
It’s not just for reanimating knocked out people in action flicks.
Smelling salts are being used on NHL benches to give the players their own quick wake-me-up.
Nineteen-year-old Mitchell Marner of the Toronto Maple Leafs isn’t old enough to enjoy a beer if he’s playing in the States, but he is more than capable of inhaling hits of smelling salt like a boss.
Here he is taking taking a long draw from supplier teammate Matt Martin during their 3–2 win over the Red Wings Tuesday night.
One is never enough
