Emergency room Made Sep 16, 2026, sent to the company Sep 22, 2026, published by CPSC Oct 6, 2026
The product, in the report: CCM Super Tacks X hockey helmet, size Small, black, product identifier 45351-2. The helmet has a black outer shell and internal protective liner system, with clear rigid plastic ear-area guards/components positioned on each side of the helmet. The helmet was being worn with a full hockey face cage at the time of the incident. Original purchase price was approximately $449.99. The helmet involved in the incident has been removed from use and is being preserved in its post-incident condition. Of particular relevance to this report, the left side includes a clear, rigid plastic component surrounding/protecting the ear area. The lower/inferior edge of this component is located adjacent to the ear. Photographs documenting the component, its positioning, attachment points and surrounding helmet structure are available.
On September 5, 2026, my 12-year-old daughter was participating in a competitive youth hockey tournament in [REDACTED]. She was wearing a CCM Super Tacks X hockey helmet when a hockey puck struck the left side of her helmet. Immediately following the impact, she had significant bleeding from her left ear. The initial emergency department record states that the hockey puck hit her helmet plastic covering the ear causing ear laceration. She was transferred to [REDACTED] for evaluation and repair by pediatric ENT. The ENT specialist diagnosed a 3 cm full-thickness laceration extending completely through the pinna (outer ear). After examining the injury, the ENT physician documented: On evaluation it appears that the lesion occurred posterior to anterior likely caused by the inferior aspect of her helmet being pushed through her pinna. The wound required irrigation, layered closure and placement of an auricular bolster. After returning to Colorado, she required additional emergency and ENT treatment at [REDACTED], including replacement of the bolster and continued antibiotic treatment. Within approximately 36 hours of the incident, she required treatment at three hospitals in two states. She was unable to play in the final two games of the tournament and has been unable to participate in hockey while recovering. We are reporting this incident because we are concerned that the design and/or behavior of the helmets rigid plastic ear-area component during the impact may have contributed to the severity of the injury. We would like this incident investigated to determine whether the helmet or its ear-area design could present a similar injury risk to other young hockey players. The helmet has been removed from use and preserved in its post-incident condition. We also have the original game video showing the impact, photographs of the helmet and injury, and medical documentation.
What type of product(s) were being used?
CCM Super Tacks X hockey helmet, size Small, black, identifier 45351-2, worn with a hockey face cage.
Who was using the product(s)?
My 12-year-old daughter, [REDACTED], a competitive youth hockey player.
How were the product(s) being used?
The helmet was being worn during normal competitive youth hockey play in a sanctioned tournament game. [REDACTED] was wearing the helmet when a hockey puck struck the left side of it.
Were there any injuries that happened or may have happened while using the product?
Yes. [REDACTED] sustained a 3 cm full-thickness laceration extending completely through her left pinna (outer ear). The injury required pediatric ENT repair, layered wound closure, an auricular bolster, antibiotics, subsequent emergency/ENT treatment and replacement of the bolster.
How did any injuries occur?
A puck struck the left side of [REDACTED] helmet. The initial emergency department record states that the puck hit her helmet plastic covering the ear causing ear laceration. The pediatric ENT physician who subsequently examined and repaired the injury documented that it appeared to have occurred posterior-to-anterior, likely caused by the inferior aspect of her helmet being pushed through her pinna. The precise interaction between the impact, helmet and ear-area components has not been independently determined, which is one reason we are reporting the incident for investigation.

The product, in the report: CCM Speed Blade Stainless Steel Runners - Senior Size:271 mm
My son was playing in a hockey game when he noticed his skate blade break. Fortunately, he did not get injured. The skate blade was less than 4 months old and had been professionally installed and sharpened. I want to report because others who have reviewed the blades where I purchased them are citing similar quality problems. It is extremely dangerous to have relatively new skate blades break.
