INJURY: Colorado Avalanche goalie leaves game bleeding
You do not want to be a goalie in this years playoffs, we've seen Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Casey DeSmith leave game one in overtime due to injury, followed by Antti Raanta who was injured after being run into by Boston Bruins David Pastrnak, and now a third goaltender has suffered an injury.

The injury occurred during Game 3 of the series between the Nashville Predators and Colorado Avalanche with the Avalanche leading 2-1. On the play Ryan Johansen inadvertently got his stick tangled in Darcy Kuemper's mask. The stick made it through the eye hole of the mask and Kuemper was cut on the play and was forced to leave the game.

Back up goaltender, Pavel Francouz would go on to finish the last minute of the first period.
