Adam McQuaid had a long skate back to the Boston Bruins' bench Sunday after an embarrassing fall led to a Tampa Bay Lightning goal.

The veteran defenseman lost his balance with nobody near him as he received a pass at the point. His slip opened the door for a two-on-zero between Ryan Callahan and Alex Killorn, which they executed to perfection for Callahan's ninth goal of the season.

While McQuaid reminded all hockey fans that ice is, indeed, slippery, one Twitter user discovered another possible cause for the blown tire.
