Patrick Eaves slapshot to head

[UnrefinedCrude]

Wow..just saw this on TV. Hope he's ok.

Rough night for the Stars.

 

[Daynz]

Oh my god. I thought you meant by a gun.

Puck to the head - could have been a better wording.

Puck to the head - could have been a better wording.

I know. To late now.

 

[Kcoyote3]

Have to watch out for epidural hematomas with shots above the ear. That's the classic spot for one of those.


Hope he's going to be okay

I edited the title for clarity.

Very scary to see him go down, he looked very bad. He was taken to the hospital for an evalutation.

I'm hoping he's okay for his own sake.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Definitely scary.

Eaves took a slapshot to the jaw a couple years ago from Josi and had post concussion syndrome then, so this is even more worrisome.

Hope he's ok.

Feel better Eaves. I always liked him while on the Wings. He was just always injured. He's a hard worker. He'll be back.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Eaves has some terrible luck, this is what his 7th concussion?

That can't be good for anyone.

 

[Tak7]

One of the more surreal sounds is hearing a sports stadium go deafly silent.

Glad he's ok. Scary stuff. His concussion history is fairly ridiculous, if I'm not mistaken?

 

[Pez68]

I really hope he's OK. That was brutal.

What is Klingberg shooting at? Jesus. This is why kids are taught to shoot LOW from the point.

 

[DuckJazz]

He and his brother were born under the wrong hockey-stars surely, such bad luck through their carreers

 

[MAHJ71]

Rough night for the Stars losing Eaves, Hemsky, and Seguin.

Only 3 points out of the playoffs.

 

[Islanderfan17]

He's had a previous concussion history? If so, I'd hang em' up after this one, that was brutal. I think to continue playing after that at any point is honestly putting your life at risk if that rung his bell as much as I think it did.
