Islanders: Refs missed Max Domi's 'clear' head shot on Isaiah George

ELMONT, N.Y. -- The New York Islanders felt the on-ice officials missed a "clear" head shot by Toronto Maple Leafs forward Max Domi that injured rookie defenseman Isaiah George on Thursday night.

Just over midway into the second period, Domi delivered a reverse hit to George while on the forecheck in the Islanders' zone. George fell to the ice and left for the trainers' room after finishing his shift with 9:21 left in the period.

He did not return to the game. Islanders coach Patrick Roy said George was in the concussion protocol but offered no further update on his health.
