Holy sh*t, this is the scariest thing I’ve seen in years. Looks like either Lebda or Fischer is down at the bench. I swear they we doing compressions. This is not good.
They finally confirmed that it was Fischer, possibly down after taking a puck to the neck. CPR was performed but John Keating is reporting that Fischer was breathing on his own as of the last report from a witness. Fischer was not taken out of the building.
Reminds me of Pronger in the 1998 playoffs.
My wife and I were amazed and scared s***less when we saw that. There was no doubt they were doing CPR. And yes, it does bring back frightning memories of Pronger.
They’re reporting now that he’s breathing on his own but unconscious and has been taken to the hospital. Looks like he took a stick to the neck on the bench.
Waiting for another ambulance, they need one on hand in case of another incident, then it looks like the game will resume.
Wings are reporting that he suffered a seizure. Now in stable condition. The teams and the league are determining how the rest of the night will proceed.
It’s good to hear that he is in stable condition.
The game has been cancelled.
And the right decision in my opinion.
