AHL Game Cut Short after Penguins Prospect is Stretchered Off

A scary scene arose in Friday night's AHL game between the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins and the Charlotte Checkers. Pittsburgh Penguins prospect Filip Hallander (#58th, 2018) was stretchered off the ice after an awkward collision. The incident happened with 1:12 left in a 4-2 game, and both sides agreed that ending the game would be best.

Hallander, 22, has had a fantastic start to this season, scoring 25 points (8g-17a) in 26 games. His great results this season only add to the disappointment, as nobody ever wants to see a situation unfold like this regardless of one's output.

AHL Insider Tony Androckitis reports that there is no update on Hallander:

Will update accordingly.
