Monday night's game four of the opening round series between the New York Rangers and Pittsburgh Penguins included one very painful looking moment. Rangers forward Chris Kreider, who had a career year in just about every category, left the game after taking a hard slap shot straight to the neck. Kreider left under his own power, but it was clear he was feeling that puck. The shot came from a teammate and appeared to be deflected before it struck him. Kreider has since returned for the second period.
