Viktor Arvidsson's bloody scarlet letter didn't go unnoticed on social media.
Some Twitter users went to work filling in the word(s) Arvidsson's gash supposedly spelled out, while others pondered the letter's significance after the Nashville Predators forward's forehead was cut open on a hit by Anaheim Ducks winger Nick Ritchie in Game 6 on Monday night.
