  1. Should have kept his head up.

    Last I heard he was awake and doing well so that’s good to hear.

  2. Saw it live (TV, not in person). It was legit creepy. He was stone cold stiff for a bit it seemed.

    Heads collided hard then he just fell solid to the ice, too.

    My wife took a hard fall skating over the winter. Not this hard but I freaked then, too. Made me very appreciative of my wife’s health. I can only imagine his family seeing this today.

    Really glad he seems to be OK.

  3. He’s probably got the best doctors and medicine on his side. I hope for good news

  4. Amen and wishing him a speedy recovery and back on the ice for the playoffs!

  5. Friend of the family, amazing guy off ice too. We are wishing him a speedy recovery
