Dating is Dangerous for Bruins' Tyler Seguin

Tyler Seguin is still a "kid" (he's only twenty!) when it comes to this whole complicated dating thing, plus there's the fact that he's the star of a professional hockey team in a town with dedicated fans and teen girls fawning over him...add in a few foul balls and things can get very dangerous.

Seguin participated in a speed-dating event Wednesday night at the minor league Lowell Spinners game and since things were going so well, he was completely oblivious to the fact that a fast-moving foul ball was headed straight for his head.

Lucky for Seguin, Spinners vice president Dan Beaulieu saved him from a serious injury. Just as the ball approached, Beaulieu improvised by sticking his smartphone out in front of the ball, deflecting it. "This lefty hit a shot right at the back of Tyler’s head, and I valiantly jumped out and smashed my cell phone and saved his life. Saved the season of the Bruins," Beaulieu told the camera in a video posted on Bruins.com. Seguin realized just after what had happened, and immediately stood up to give Beaulieu a hug and thank him.

"Saved my life, yes you did," Seguin replied. "I heard everyone yell ‘heads up,’ and then there was a big bam." Beaulieu's phone is of course, totally ruined, and he also had a shiner on his hand from the incident. Seguin joked, "He’s going to get a 21st century iPhone, because he needed an upgrade anyways."

This wasn't Seguin's first almost-collision with something other than a hockey puck this off-season. During the NBA Playoffs, Seguin was nearly injured sitting courtside at a Celtics game when Utah Jazz guard Alec Burks almost fell on him trying to save a ball from going out of bounds.

Either Seguin better be buying him that iPhone, or some box seats for the B's are in order for Mr. Beaulieu this upcoming season.
