During Tuesday’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway was carted off the ice on a stretcher after taking a puck to the throat.

As the medical personnel attended to Holloway on the bench, they eventually retrieved the stretcher and placed him on it. From St. Louis’s Enterprise Center, an ambulance transported him to a hospital.

An NHL insider named Frank Seravalli has learned from reliable sources that Holloway’s airway is clear and unrestricted, therefore he should be fine. To make sure everything is clear, he will get a precautionary scan at the hospital.

A puck struck Dylan Holloway in the neck, causing him to leave the game on a stretcher.

Holloway hurt himself with little more than a minute remaining in the first quarter. With 1:11 remaining in the first period, both teams skated off the ice.

On that particular play, Lightning forward Nicholas Paul shot a puck towards Holloway as he attempted to make a defensive save. Elevated, it joined directly to Holloway’s neck. Holloway stayed on the ice for over a minute before making his way to the bench, where the Blues’ medical personnel conducted their initial evaluation.

It has been claimed that Holloway is accompanied in the hospital by his parents, who were there at the game on Tuesday night.
