St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway was hit by a puck in the neck area and had to be taken off the bench on a stretcher late in the first period of a game against the visiting Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday night.
Holloway finished his shift after being hit but received medical attention back on the bench. His neck was stabilized before he was taken to the locker room on a stretcher. He was then transported to a local-area hospital for further evaluation.
With 1:11 left in the first period, the game was stopped for an early intermission. The plan was for it to resume with the final 1:11 of the first period, followed immediately by the second period.
Holloway, 23, is in his first season with the Blues after spending his first two NHL campaigns with the Edmonton Oilers. He had four goals and two assists in his first 12 games of the season.
