In the recent NHL games, injuries were sustained by New Jersey Devils' Kyle Palmieri and Buffalo Sabres' Tage Thompson. Palmieri was injured after being checked into the end boards. Thompson had a more difficult game, suffering from multiple injuries. He initially incurred a lower-body injury, and later blocked a shot with his glove, resulting in an upper-body injury. Despite visibly struggling with pain on the field, Thompson tried to continue playing but was eventually forced to leave. Buffalo Sabres' coach Don Granato confirmed in his postgame comments that Thompson will likely miss 'significant time' due to his injuries.

Thompson is certainly playing through some kind of pain. Helped clear the puck on the PK and skated to the bench slamming his stick. He was hunched over for a moment talking to the trainer and headed to the room
