Last night after hitting defender Ben Chiarot, John Tavares was hit head-on in the face by Corey Perry's knee, who was unable to avoid the collision.
Here is the sequence:
Sheldon Keefe, has filed an update regarding his captain and under the circumstances the news is good: «He is conscious and communicates well ... but he will stay in the hospital overnight. The tests came back "clear"! "
Such a session, no player wants to attend it ... John Tavares is a great hockey player, but above all, an exceptional human. A committed, dedicated, professional individual and VERY appreciated by the people he meets. To see him get up this way, it makes my heart hurt, nothing less.
Following the match, Carey Price and Corey Perry, personal friends of John Tavares, delivered a very emotional speech. Perry has also indicated that he will contact his comrade, most likely tomorrow.
