Maybe a bad idea to open the floor to speculation, but I wonder if some of our more medically knowledgeable members can hypothesize the injury to Holloway tonight?

Just speculation, not worth any more than anyone else’s. I thought the puck hit him to the side of his trachea, worried me that the carotid artery could be dissecting. But it was wise to keep him under observation to be sure his airway wasn’t compromised, which could turn into a sudden life threatening emergency if his trachea swelled. I couldn’t tell what symptoms he was having, but it looked asymmetrical, so I worried about the brain’s blood supply. Early details sound like this was mostly precautionary, from what I’ve seen.
