"UPDATE: #CBJ Kuraly suffered an abdominal injury. While his injury does not appear to be serious at this time, he will be taken to Grant Medical Center for further evaluation"
Thanks for the update. Thankfully it's not too serious. Leafs nation wishing him a speedy and healthy recovery.
looked like a broken rib
@@KevinBrevin That's my guess, but it seems strange that he would collapse after he got to the bench. Punctured lung? Other puncture?
It’s gotta be something decently serious. I would reckon he’ll be out for at least a couple weeks.
@@fleatactical7390maybe he had an adrenaline rush and felt he needed to get off the ice
To the announcers: Emergency trauma medicine is a whole different animal than standard medical care. That's why they were calling for the people that are specialized in handling those kinds of situations even though they have a team doctor. Not to mention if it had been a serious life threatening situation you need the EMTs to bring a stretcher and prep the patient for transport and everything else.
The announcers will never see your comment
Not only to the announcers. This is to everyone. I'm the spouse of a emergency medicine physician and the things they're trained to deal with are very different than a generalist. There are specialties in medicine for a reason.
From Twitter:
Per #CBJ spokesman, Sean Kuraly was evaluated at Grant Medical Center, but not admitted. He was sent home Saturday evening after battery of tests proved negative.
Unclear how much time, if any, he’ll miss. Don’t expect an update from club until after the three-day holiday break.
Could be a ruptured spleen. Happened to a guy on my lax team years ago - got sandwiched and seemed innocuous enough, but ended up needing a medevac and almost died from internal bleeding. Hope he's ok.
Or sternum
Could be rib, collapsed lung, maybe even a commotio cordis event (look it up - it happened to Chris Pronger once).
Could also be the hit from McCabe. Who knows. Not really worth speculating, IMO.
Hopefully not a ruptured spleen. That is a super subtle way to bleed out. Almost killed my brother
@@kevingunnery5470That's exactly what they're saying it is
Judging by the part of his abdomen he was holding I don't think it is his spleen possibly a ruptured appendix
Bruins fan here who has nothing but love and respect for Kuraly. Stand up dude, and solid player who always puts the team first. Hate to see this happen to (almost) any player on the ice, but especially hate when it happens to a good dude like him.
Our Lord and Savior Sean Kuraly
Bruins! 🫶🏻👋🏻 agreed.
so there are some players then that you would like to see hurt? wow,
What a beast, even tried to keep playing. Hope he's okay.
Hope Kuraly is OK. Tough player, god speed
God bless him and his family thank you and MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY
@@peterkozak1291god ain't real bro. No one's listening to your prayers except the voices in your head, and that's not god. Maybe do something meaningful with your life instead of offering thoughts and fucking prayers. Fucking worthless garbage from you people.
Same thing happened to Peter Forsberg, ruptured spleen from his stick spearing himself into the boards
We used to play floor hockey in the school Gym with wooden sticks cut off and a girls ice skating ringette ring.... I was flying the wing one day and the metal plate in the floor covering the hole where the Volleyball net went popped out and my stick went into it, INSTANT STOPPAGE.... luckily I had my stick down and both hands on it and , I did not let go and held on like hell with both hands , it speared me in the midriff and it flipped me all the way over and I almost landed on my feet, good thing there was a massive well taped knob on that stick or I could have been impaled.I think his hands came off his stick which sucks.
Just had some guy come in so quick along the boards while both of us were going for the puck that I didn't have a chance to clear my stick. It ended up getting jammed into my stomach a bit. Not enough to do damage, but it reminded me of that Forsberg accident and how easily a stick can get in a weird position like that.
Love how the 2 players helped the EMT across the ice. Glad to hear Kuraly is OK.
Surprised this doesn't happen more in pro hockey. I've had it happen to myself and it hurts like hell for starters. At the speed these guys play at it's a wonder no one has been impaled
I had something similar a few years back and ended up rupturing my kidney. Was rushed to the hospital and spent a week there. Very scary I hope he had a speedy recovery.
Reading up, it sounds like they were able to clear him for any serious injuries.
What a beast skating through that. Insane level of toughness/survivor instinct there. Looked like some severe internal damage related to his own stick jabbing up into the boards.
Was the puck hitting him in the chest.
@@Leafsdude_ I'm not sure if it was the puck in the chest, probably was his own stick jabbing him in the gut or where ever it hit him. probably took a few seconds to start feeling the intense pain. either way looks painful as fuck
No, his own stick got gouged into his chest.@leafsdude6582
@brians380 yup his stick basically impaled his upper torso. OUCH
@@deebrandt007 No. The puck hit him in the chest. It's clearly what caused the injury.
His first instinct was to try to continue to play, despite the serious injury. Hockey players are just another breed
Not the new ones in the most none aggressive hockey league in the history of the NHL lmao 😂😂😂😂 now the ol players.... those are the warriors!!!! Punch out a row of teeth And keep going while the stitches are still bleeding and than slash the guy across his head or the classic patrick roy or Hasek fights or ol drunk belfor fighting with everyone 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 nowadays its like watching two lesbians slap each other 😂😂😂😂
Always like to see the other team demonstrating concern when somebody is injured. The other bench were all looking over instead of just killing time, and a few watched from the ice. The officials also reacted, the lead ref following to ensure the game flow stayed clear while the other helped Kuraly clear the ice, and they didn't debate stopping play when called on.
Glad for the reports all tests came back negative at the hospital and they just did a catch and release.
Hockey players are tough as nails. I remember when Rich Peverley was clinically dead on the bench and when they revived him his next instinct was to ask when his next shift was.
I agree, not like a baseball player that goes on the DL with a hang nail...
Won’t ever see MLB or NBA players do that.
However, nfl, more precisely Damar Hamlin, basically did the same thing. “When am I going back in?”
Will never forget that. I'm a huge Stars fan and watched the game. So glad he is doing well now. One of the scariest moments I've witnessed.
@@JJGeneral1well once you're out of a baseball game, you can't go back in
@@counterfit5 doesn’t matter. All the other sports are 🐱 compared to NHL players.
about 20yrs ago, similar thing happened in a beer league game i was playing in. same reaction, same kind of play. turned out a cracked rib nicked the guy's liver & caused some minor internal bleeding. best wishes...
It reminds me of the Dallas stars player
Rich Peverly. Great player
@@chrisp8849 Ik
If people don't already know, Kuraly collapsed in the tunnel on the way to the dressing room. That's the reason they called for the medical staff.
Yeah. I saw him go down in real time.
@@everyday_maycia yes, it freaked me TF out.
I was at this game bro. It was scary cause I pointed him skating off to my family and almost 10 seconds later, They started calling for medical attention. It was quite scary not knowing what happened to him.
Ok bro
@@MyMg23 yeah ok, believe or dont but i know what i saw
bro@@everyday_maycia
He is now home, after tests done at hospital showed everything is good. Blue Jackets statement said his own stick speared his abdomen during the hit.
Yeah no. He had no serious injuries.. Don't lie. I saw this happen in person. His stick did not spear his abdomen.
Wow watching Guddy and Elvis getting that linesman's attention was scary. they were serious!!
I'm kinda surprised they don't have an emergency medical team behind the benches, in the corridors.
That would make sense though wouldn’t it
@@alwayshopeful70Why not?
Same. This older gentleman has to shuffle across the ice in shoes. Wtf?
The team doctor is behind the bench. You can see the trainer removing the glass to let him into the tunnel. The guy on the ice is just an EMT.
Yea, commentators were kinda dumb what they were saying. They singaled for the paramendic not the teams medical person.@@annietasker214
Hope he’s ok.. I’m just confused as to how it works at the rink I suppose. I always thought if you continue past the bench into the locker room the top notch docs will find you there no?
Kuraly (abdomen) was discharged from the hospital Saturday after initial testing came back clear, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Looks like a ruptured spleen
Almost lost my brother to that in a Lax game, he'd made his peace with god before the medics saved him.
I wish the best for Kuraly thank god for modern medicine
Sean is such a cool dude and tough as nails.. hopefully he will be ok.
Ruptured something internally?
Total guess as an armchair expert.
Ya....there was nothing obvious from watching the play.... Seemed like hands...or in the gut area....
@@cambrowndrums You're probably right on that.
Damn, shades of Larkin - a hit that looks ordinary but ends-up being quite serious - hope he's okay and bounces back just as fast 👍
Hes a tough dude...hope he's ok.
Loved him on the Bruins
Well that answers my question of what the delay was about. I missed the entire first period of this game
I hope you get better Mr. Kuraly 🙏
Prayers❤❤
Looked like butt-end of his own stick speared him when they collided and ran into the boards... he dropped his stick right away.
That’s what I was thinking too. Hope he’s ok!!
Was a puck in the chest.
@@Leafsdude_puck didn’t look like it had anything to do with it dude. He looked hurt prior, that little backhand clear is not what doubled him over
@@MachoManAndySavage125He was double hit but then got the puck up in his chest area
@@MachoManAndySavage125 He looked hurt, but he didn't double over until the puck hit him. I'd bet rib injury or commotio cordis. Those pucks pack a punch, and that's a very tender region.
The response was way too slow and should be investigated. Having a guy run across the ice to get to the player's bench. Seemed like it took minutes for him to get there. If this was a different situation, this hockey player could be dead.
used to watch Kuraly when he was still in the USHL, hope he recovers okay, scary situation for sure
As a Dallas Stars fan, this hits hard.
I'll always remember that game with Peverly. Scary stuff
Or as a fan period…
@@kevingunnery5470he’s referring to a specific event that happened with the stars
I have always been a big fan of Rich, that was one helluva scary moment for sure.
Yeah ... Jiri Fischer too
It looked to me that he got the butt end of his stick up underneath his rib cage when he went into the wall directly behind the net. That's a scary situation, and I don't blame the Blue Jackets' bench for reacting as they did. Hopefully he recovers well and quickly.
Thoughts and prayers on that hug prayer. Hopefully he’s OK. Hope everything goes well.
Praying for you dude.
How scary! You hate seeing that! I'm an avs fan, but dang makes me want to cry! Hope he's okay!
Could be spleen happened to me when I was 10. Went to shoot the puck around the boards and my stick got stuck in the seam in the boards. I skated right into it and it speared me I got rushed to the ER and it had missed my Spleen by millimeters. The ER Dr said I was lucky!
Bonkers that the NHL and teams haven’t changed protocols on this, would be easy to implement EMTs/doctors in the tunnel behind the benches (instead of crossing the ice) and a panic button located at the bench to speed these situations up. Could even link the button to the horn and game clock as a pause in game for player safety. I mean, I’m not an expert but these seem easy implementations 🤷♂️
You are a genius. Seriously. I hope someone from the NHL sees this and it's in place within a month.
I work there. They have medical assistance pretty close, and a decent amount of it.
They just called the EMTs they saw.
Hope he recovers fully!
I pray he’s ok 🙏🏻
Sure, that'll make a difference 🙄🙄🙄
@@jeffreycairns767go cry more
@@jeffreycairns767least obnoxious atheist.
@@jeffreycairns767That type of comment is not necessary at all.
@@Skithiryx75 He's right tho 😆medical staff will take care of him just fine
Sean curaly is a tough kid. I hope he's ok. He's a character player. Gritty.
Hope he is ok. Good tough player.
Abdominal injuries can feel like you've been ripped in half, speaking from experience. Hope it's nothing worse.
The medical guys really need to be closer to the benches. Like, what the heck was that, someone is possibly severely injured and it took the guy 20 minutes to waddle across the ice.
Did you watch the whole video when the announcer says there is a DOCTOR by each bench and a tunnel for them to use to get over there quicker
They are there because of that is where the ambulance is. So they can load and go. There is no perfect spot but they can stabilize and get out quickly. Most critical situations for " players" they usually do not leave the ice on their own
Reply
Typically those guys are there if some is hurt on the ice that needs to be stretchered off. Much faster access to an ambulance through those Zamboni doors. Each team does have their own doctor behind the bench.
It really helps if you get a whistle to stop play lol
Hoping he's going to be ok.
This happened to me. Didn't take much. Instantly knew something was wrong and started cold sweating. Went to the ER with low blood pressure, was misdiagnosed, and went home. Couldn't stand the next day without falling over. Got x-rays and was told I lacerated my spleen. Sent me to a major hospital for a few nights and thankfully I recovered. I got very lucky.
Glad you were ok!
You were playing hockey?
I’m glad to hear you are okay.
Merry Christmas
@@kaypie3112 Yes. Took a light check into the boards and my elbow went into my lower ribs.
Merry Christmas!
Played 20 years of hockey,never at the pro level,but I came to the conclusion,hay my position as a goaltender,was,ans is the safest of the 6 positions on the ice!Me opinion,so do not get insane!75 year old hockey crazed person!
Depends on the Dr. you see. Suggest to them that you think you lacerated your spleen and some would laugh while others would say lets take a look.
The post game they reported he’s going to be Okay thankfully 🙏🏼 says he was taken to hospital
Hope he’s okay. I know they transported him to a local hospital. Hopefully it was just the wind getting knocked out of him and the medical staff is just being precautious
That’s not wind man. The way he’s creasing his abdominal area suggests it’s a spleen or kidney issue
He collapsed in the tunnel. Thats why they called for medical attention
I'm a Marine combat veteran, and I have so much respect for what hockey players go through. It's such an intense and dangerous sport. These guys get on the ice, knowing they could sustain a life altering injury. All for their love of the sport, fans, and their teammates.
Thank you for your service and Merry Christmas !🎄
Latest update is its an abdominal injury, and its not life threatening. Hes in the hospital for more evaluation.
Related to the comment about the tunnels and why the need to walk across the ice, I've been to an ice rink/hockey stadium for a convention, and if this building is designed similarly, you can't go straight from the Zamboni area to the team room areas directly. The fastest way to get there would be the way the paramedic went.
yeah I used to be a CIT and not only that but tons of shit in the way too. A lot of places store the basketball tile back there and the hallway can be small. Also end of period so zams and shit can be in the way thru the to the hallway/tunnel
Ive been following this since it happened, hope Kuraly will be ok
Glad he's okay😊
I was here for this game.
I was thinking Forsberg.
seems to be something internal .. weird
Blunt force trauma injuries are very dangerous
Yikes. I hope he is okay.
Jesus thats scary. I pray for the guy.
🙏🏻
Ill never get why they make it where people have to go across the ice to get to the players. Seconds matter in times like this
Probably because more often than not players need medicinal attention on the ice. They should definitely have a doc./paramedic in the tunnel as well if they normally don’t already.
The team doctor was behind the bench. He was there immediately.
As a redwing fan this stuff is scary to watch after what recently happened to Dylan Larkin. Hope your player is going to be okay.
Wait, wtf does being a Wings fan have ANYTHING to do with this video?! Lol I’m still looking for the mofo who even asked who your favorite team was. Lol
What happened to Larkin?
@@tanyawieczorek6603 he was hit in the head and face at the same time by two defenders and knocked unconscious. He laid on the ice for quite some time before coming to. Scary situation.
Yea and when Jiri Fischer went into cardiac arrest on the bench a number of years ago
The toughness level of hockey players is another level. Football players sit for "turf toe," and yet we see guys skating on broken legs or internal injuries. Prayers for this guy.
No doubt on hockey player brute toughness. Not sure comparing NFL toughness is fair ; NBA is more appropriate. NFL players take one hell of a beating every week. Haven’t heard a turf toe reference in years but check out video on Deon Sanders turf toe-not an injury to take lightly
@@georgemorris5887 plays 3 to 4 of actual games a week, plays one game a week. Best of 7 playoffs series throughout, plays one and done. Have to play both offense and defense, plays one sided. Continuous playing until play is dead, plays maybe 5-12 seconds then gets a small timeout every play. The list goes on and on. Even the MLB has is tougher than the NFL. Hell even soccer players are tougher cause if they get injured and have no subs that player will try to stay on the field in any capacity possible. Football players get cramps and call it a day.
@@OneFoxTwoFox I never did nor would question hockey player toughness. Just take a look at NFL vets with CTE and average playing career years wise. Saying baseball has it tougher ! ? What a joke.
Dude that was my thought exactly! Football is an extremely physical game! I would never ever call football players, in general, out for lack of toughness. And then to have nobody mention the glaringly obvious wimpiest major sport (MLB) which has players literally sit out for "fatigue" and "sprained finger"!?! Some people are just wild. @@georgemorris5887
Hockey can be scary as fuck some times. Get well soon, Sean.
Any word on what happened to him?
be okay please
Medical staff need to be closer to the bench and not worried about watching a free game.
Refs got to pull their heads out of their asses as well they looked like complete idiots not stopping the game.
The team doctor is behind the bench. Couldn't get much closer IMO.
Wow .
the fact that the ref didn't blow the whistle is insane
Did the puck slip under the chest gear or what happened?
The stick!
I was there, the bench reaction was intense. They were throwing shit on the ice and doing whatever they could to stop play and get that slow af paramedic there. It didn't look bad but when he dropped his stick you could see he was hurt pretty bad. Hope he is okay
I was so annoyed by the slowness of the medic. Aren't they supposed to be fit?
Dude the guys going across ice wo help or skates. Hes being careful or hell fall down and end up being slower
Congrats on being there and the stupid af comment golfturd.
@@wes6244wtf does being fit have to do with anything ? you realize he doesn’t have f’n skates on correct ? Don’t body shame someone who is only there to help only because he didnt respond in a time that you deem appropriate.
@@wes6244 Aren't you supposed to be smarter?
What’s up with hockey this season?
When hockey organizations faces more injuries of these changes will be made to better tend them
The ref didn’t blow bec he made the effort to the bench stfu and don’t knock the guy running out to help. Hopefully he’s ok. He’s hardcore that’s why he went back to the bench.
He’s all good
hope he's ok
1:16-This might be a morbid thought (and we know he's working on coming back so all's well for him thank God), but it's a weird feeling seeing that pose and going "That reminds me of getting spiked in the original Prince of Persia."
The doctor is only one person. If this is a serious medical problem, which it appears to be, there has to be medically trained personnel to help the doctor out. It would be nice for the people calling the game to not publicly criticize the man appearing to be walking across the ice slowly-he wasnt wearing skates. Also, its not his fault he wasnt on the other side of the ice when he was needed. Where are all the medical staff to begin with? Sounds like it was a case of bad circumstance and/or poor planning. I hope Kuraly is ok.
Could possibly be a torn Abductor Muscle, IDK !
Is there some kind of Panic button on the bench, saw a trainer snack something up high behind the bench on the wall going back towards the dressing room.
Whatever it is hope he's doing fine .
From what I hear he had open heart surgery and is in recovery
Now you know not to listen to those people again.
idk if its true but def feels like there's been many more hockey injuries this year than usual
Where was their doctor behind the bench?
You can literally see the trainer letting the team doctor into the tunnel from behind the bench.
I didn't think the hit was hard tbh. Something obviously caught him. Hope he heals/ is ok.
It wasn't, but the issue was he was hit into his stick, which was braced against the boards
@@edschramm6757 That happened at 1:15. He's fine at 1:18. Puck hits him at 1:19. It's almost certainly the puck that did it.
It was his stick. The puck was barely going 10mph when it hit him. Anyone who’s ever played hockey will know it was his stick that got caught in between him and the boards that did it and not the puck like this one guy keeps saying lmao
@@Leafsdude no, he was, at least to my eye, already in pain before the puck hit him. The way he was grabbing for his stick read to me as someone who is in considerable pain
@@cambrowndrums I mean, I never got myself that squarely with my stick, but yea, the puck wasn't at a speed where it would draw much more than a flinch, unless youre injured. Then even a minor tap can lead to nasty pain.
So what happened?
Hope you feel better soon❤😢
I was at this game and the situation sucked but there was something funny about the players throwing their towels up in the air to try to get the refs attention
i guess the nhl doesnt make enough money to keep medical staff closer
Hope hes okey!
"The gentleman going across is not doing so very quickly" Ya think? He's walking on ice, someone help the guy get over there.
Move medical staff closer to the bench
Dang. Too much of this this year. Get well, sir.
McCabe's skate caught his wrist as he reached down?
No
No. I think he ended up spearing himself going into the boards
How is there no medical team in the tunnel? Columbus is at home. Their people should be right there.
The team doctor is behind the bench. You can see the trainer letting him into the tunnel ASAP.
As a Knights fan hate seeing stuff like that to anyone. Hopefully he is ok
выздоровления....
Columbus controlled the play right after with injured man on ice Why no whistle???? Wtf
