215,000 Molson NHL beer glasses recalled in Canada

Molson Coors Canada is recalling beer glasses with National Hockey League (NHL) logos over fears that the glass may break.

Health Canada has issued a recall for about 215,000 of the 568 ml glasses, which feature NHL logos of eight hockey teams:

• Boston Bruins
• Chicago Blackhawks
• Detroit Red Wings
• Edmonton Oilers
• Montreal Canadiens
• New York Rangers
• Ottawa Senators

The health agency explains that the glass used in the products can break while handwashing, and poses a risk of injury. As of Dec. 11, Molson had received 11 reports of the glasses breaking while handwashing, and eight reports of injuries.
