Boston Bruins fans collectively held their breath on Tuesday night as their star goaltender, Linus Ullmark, faced an injury scare during a tense matchup against the Arizona Coyotes.

The game went into overtime, and unfortunately, the Coyotes secured the victory.

The crucial moment unfolded in the extra frame when Ullmark, in an attempt to make a glove save on a shot from Logan Cooley, left fans on the edge of their seats. He had to be assisted off the ice, leaving a gap that backup Jeremy Swayman stepped in to fill. However, jumping into an overtime situation is always challenging, and shortly after Swayman's entrance, Nick Schmaltz sealed the Coyotes' win with an overtime goal.




After the game, Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery addressed the media, confirming Ullmark's lower-body injury. The star goalie's condition will undergo reevaluation on Wednesday and Thursday. Ullmark had an impressive game, making 32 saves on 35 shots before leaving.
