There is cause for concern for Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Chris Tanev after he was stretchered off the ice during tonight's game against the Philadelphia Flyers.
Tanev was hit from behind by Flyers second-year player Matvei Michkov, who was then immediately confronted by several Leafs players.
Tanev had recently come back from 10 days of concussion protocol after being hurt on October 21 at home against the New Jersey Devils.
Chris Tanev Had Just Come Back From 10 Days Of Concussion Protocol
Tanev has had concussions in his career, and he said he was looking forward to coming back tonight for the 1st time in over a week.

I mean, there's so many different things a person can feel, and I don't think any one is the same. - Chris Tanev
