Tyler Myers hurts as a Tommy Novak shot deflected up and hit him square in the visor. Scary sequence, and a fair bit of concern for Myers from the Predators crowd - who applauded the road player when he got up - and his #Canucks teammates. He's gone down the tunnel.

Namestnikov lost a lot of blood after taking a puck to the face. Eerily close to where Brenden Dillon was bloodied Thursday night.
