Players Left Praying After Slapshot to the face results in pools of blood
The best moments of the night were Alex Ovechkin's goals #801 and #802 against the Winnipeg Jets, but prayers for Washington Capitals defenseman John Carlson should receive all the attention.

It is a good sign that the process is being followed and that the issue was not judged urgent when Carlson was later transported to the hospital as a precaution. Carlson has our best wishes and we are hoping for a speedy recovery.
