Boston Bruins forward Nathan Horton will miss the remainder of the Stanley Cup Final due to a severe concussion suffered during Game 3 on Monday.
Horton was injured at 5:07 of the first period on a check by Canucks defenseman Aaron Rome. Horton remained on the ice for several minutes and eventually was removed on a stretcher and taken to Massachusetts General Hospital.
Rose was assessed a five-minute major for interference and game-misconduct. TSN is reporting he will meet with NHL Senior Vice President of Hockey Operations Mike Murphy for potential supplemental discipline on Tuesday.
Horton's 8 goals and 17 points are second on the team, and he's played a key role on the Bruins' top line, with David Krejci and Milan Lucic. Earlier this postseason, he became the first player in NHL history to score the winning goal in two Game 7s in one playoff year. He scored the overtime series-winner against the Montreal Canadiens in the first round, and scored the only goal of Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
