The worst was confirmed just a few weeks ago for Blackhawks goaltender Alex Stalock, after taking a hard hit from New York Islanders forward Casey Cizikas, Stalock found himself in concussion protocol, which has now lasted a entire month.
Usually when you see a teams' goaltender get hit in any manner, somebody steps up, but in this case not a single Blackhawks player did, and this has got to be the worst hit a goalie has received in quite some time.
Although many Blackhawks may have forgotten about the incident, one sure didn't, and that's forward Reese Johnson who does not get a lot or attention in Chicago.
After the Stalock injury the Blackhawks were lined up to face off against the Islanders in one months time, Reese Johnson wasted no time in dropping the gloves with Cizikas, as he should!
