Blue Jackets veteran Sean Kuraly found himself on the receiving end of a hit along the boards and a subsequent puck to the stomach, causing evident distress.

As Kuraly laboriously made his way to the Blue Jackets bench, immediate panic erupted among the team staff. The situation escalated when Kuraly reportedly collapsed behind the bench, prompting the swift arrival of paramedics and EMTs.
