One of our defensemen (Rome) tripped Horton from the Bruins and he went flying backwards onto his back on the ice. He got rushed to the hospital and has a severe concussion I think. He will be out for the rest of the series.
Rome got suspended from the rest of the series and if the series doesn't play all 7 games, he's looking at being suspended from some of the first games in the next season.
I don't think he meant to check him as hard as he did and I don't agree with the fact that he got suspended. I'm sure most of the guys who play have done things they shouldn't have and we don't see them getting banned for 4 games for it.
On a happier note, the 5 minute power play that the Bruins got as a result of the collision in game was shut down by Luongo and the Canucks. They didn't manage to score on them until they got 8 goals between the 2nd and 3rd periods...
Good luck tomorrow guys!
