SCARY SCENE as Montreal Canadiens prospect taken off on stretcher
No one ever wants to see a player injured, and tonight in a game between the Ottawa 67's and Kingston Frontenacs, a player was taken off the ice injured on a stretcher.
A hit occured in the first period of the game which involved Montreal Canadiens prospect Vinzenz Rohrer, and as he flew in the air, he landed directly on his head/neck.
Many have reported that he was convulsing while on the ice.

Hoping for the best for Ottawa 67's Vinzenz Rohrer. He had to be stretchered off the ice. Scary scene.— Mark Scheig (@mark_scheig) January 12, 2023
Vinzenz has been taken to hospital, he was moving and generally okay. Thoughts still with Vini and his family.— Kenny Walls (@LongBallsWalls) January 12, 2023
Vinzenz Rohrer is a third round pick by the Montreal Canadiens in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, and has been having a very good season for the Ottawa 67's. Let's hope everything is alright and he can make a full recovery.
Doesn't look as bad from this angle, still unfortunate but I think it could've been way worse pic.twitter.com/l5PpyezoRB— Alex Jodoin (@colegoalfield) January 12, 2023
