Game Canceled After Scary Situation Breaks Loose
Hockey fans thrive for good old school hockey which includes big hits, tough knuckled fights and more goodies, but one thing nobody thrives for is to see a fellow player go down in a vulnerable manner due to injury.
Sadly, this was the case on Friday night during a Pittsburgh Penguins AHL affiliate (Wilkes-Barre Scarnton Penguins Penguins) game. With little time left in the third period, a Pittsburgh Penguins prospect by the name of Filip Hallander got into a very scary collision with an opposing teams player, which left Hallander landing on his head.
It was a quiet moment in the arena when Hallander was down, thankfully medical staff quickly came to Hallander's needs, while the players were taking a knee, left shocked.
The remaining 1 minute and twelve seconds left in the game was meaningless, the injury and Hallander's condition was quite more important so the league decided to cancel the remainder of the game.
