February 10, 2008 - The Florida Panthers and Buffalo Sabres are both in need of wins as they chase playoff spots in the Eastern Conference. So there was a lot at stake going into Sunday night's game.
But Richard Zednik's injury changed all that.
Blood gushed from Zednik's neck after he was hurt midway through the third period of Buffalo's 5-3 victory, creating a frightening moment that delayed the game for about 15 minutes. There was also a brief discussion about postponing the game altogether.
Two hours after the game, the Panthers announced Zednik was resting comfortably at Buffalo General Hospital after having surgery. He was hurt with 9:56 left in what was a freak but frightening accident.
