Following the game, the Hurricanes released the following statement:
"Defenseman Brendan Smith was transported to University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for evaluation and imaging. He is in stable condition and has been released to travel with the team to Philadelphia, where he will continue to be monitored by the Hurricanes medical staff." - Carolina Hurricanes, Twitter
Hopefully he won't be spending too much time on the sidelines because of it.
