Scary Moment at Joe Louis Arena

Recommended Posts

Was watching the Detroit Red Wings - Nashville Predators game, and Jiri Fischer collapsed on the Wings bench. He is being taken to the hospital. You could see medics performing CPR on him. It is unknown what exactly happened at the moment, but reports are that he was hit by the puck, and possibly in the throat.

As I said over on DH.N, this feels a lot like when Chris Pronger went down in the 1998 playoffs. You see a big guy like Fischer or Pronger that go down, have them doing compressions on him on the side of the bench, absolutely terrifying. These guys always seem so invincible.

Ironic too after watching Fischer and Pronger in those Dodge truck commercials.

An update; from what they have been told Fischer was breathing on his own when they left the arena for the hospital, but it is still unknown is actual condition. It also appears that it was not a puck, after watching replays. Don't know what happened though.

The rest of the game's been cancelled.

Right Call IMO,cause honestly i don't think neither team would be ready to play mentaly after witnessing that.

My thoughts exactly.

Will the game be made up?

Of course it will, they just havent announced the date yet. The one day my NHL center Ice package isnt working for some reason, I wanted to see what was going on with it.
