St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway provides an update on his condition after being stretchered out of the arena on Tuesday night.
The St. Louis Blues managed to pull off a 3-2 victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday night. Despite the victory the Blues suffered an unfortunate loss as Dylan Holloway took a puck to the neck area, resulting in him being stretchered off the ice and rushed to the nearest hospital.
However after the game head coach Drew Bannister provided a positive update .
Now, Holloway has addressed the media himself after he was released from the hospital, going into details about what had happened after taking a puck to the neck.
"As soon as the puck hit my neck, I knew something was a little off. As soon as I started skating I felt a little lightheaded a bit and then when I was going to the bench it kind of felt like when you stand up too fast and you get that head rush. It felt like that but it kind of just kept coming on."
Holloway, also revealed that he blacked out after being hit in the neck with the puck, as he doesn't remember anything from the moment he was hit until he was stretchered out of the arena.
Thankfully the 23-year old was in high spirits despite how concerned fans were about his situation, and even showed the mark that was left on his neck from the puck.
Definitely a great update on his condition, as it appears that Holloway hasn't sustained any serious injuries and will return with his team soon.
