You can clearly see Crozier's skates (who was inserted into the lineup by Jon Cooper) leaving the ice on this hit.

Juraj Slafkovsky was badly shaken. He struggled to get back up and eventually left for the locker room, not returning to the game before the end of the second period.

More details to come.
