Tucker Tynan, the goalie of the OHL's Niagara IceDogs, is in stable condition and in surgery after being severely slashed in the leg by a skate during Thursday night's game against the London Knights, the team announced.
Tynan collided with a Knights player in the crease and immediately started bleeding from his right leg.
According to Sportsnet Canada, he was tended to on the ice for about 10 minutes by trainers and paramedics, before he was put onto a stretcher.
Shortly after the injury, the Ontario Hockey League announced that the remainder of the game had been cancelled.
