Early in the first period on Tuesday night, Alex Stalock was run into by Islanders forward
Casey Cizikas and was forced to leave the game and was placed in concussion protocol. Cizikas was ultimately fined by the NHL Department of Player Safety for the incident. With Stalock leaving the game, 23-year-old
Arvid Soderblom came in relief, but the Blackhawks fell to the Islanders, 3-1.
