While it still looks like Gilbert hit his head, it appears the linesman did his best to soften the blow. This is one of the most dangerous parts of fighting and one of the reasons the NHL has taken steps to try and reduce the number of times helmets are removed during fights.
Predators Get the Last Laugh In the Win Against Flames
The Predators were able to squeak out the win against the Flames 4-2 last night. This extends the Predators win streak to 3 games in a row.
The Predators will hope to use this win streak to continue to spark their season, as they had a pretty slow start to the year. They currently sit at 8-10, in the middle of the standings.
