Chychrun made a perfect hit and Cousins flew into the rim like a regular and was lying down with barely three minutes left in regular time.

The crowd booed and Chychrun chewed on his mouthguard and looked up at the jumbotron as the referees video-reviewed the incident - only to clear the Washington player. It wasn't even two minutes.

The entrained Cousins, who had a bloody jacket to his temple, was helped out by teammates and medical personnel, never to return to the game.

- You don't want to see that. It's a guy with heart and soul. He's an incredible teammate and it cracked us up. It stinks to see something like that, says teammate Hayden Hodgson according to the NHL.

After the heavy tackle, Ottawa lost 3–2 in overtime.

Open Questions
