Terrifying scene: a young Quebecer ends his game in convulsions in the QMJHL
Two very disturbing scenes happened in the hockey world last night, and they involve a Quebecer and a former Montreal Canadiens player.
Indeed, last night, Mike Reilly had a bad time following a routine contact with Jordan Greenway in the game between the New York Islanders and the Buffalo Sabres.
This scene quickly made the rounds on the web.
Horrible scene involving former Montreal Canadiens Mike Reilly
This is unfortunately not the only disturbing scene we had, as Justin Blais ended his QMJHL game very badly.
The Baie-Comeau Drakkar were hosting the Gatineau Olympiques and Justin fell on his head following an altercation at the end of the game. His head hit the ice violently and he convulsed.
We don't have the footage of the incident, but I don't think it's useful in the context. The important thing is that Justin was conscious when he left the rink on a stretcher.
We wish him the best of luck in his recovery, hoping that the after-effects are not too serious, or even non-existent.
Justin Blais is a 17-year-old left-handed defenseman who has 2 assists in 12 games this season. He is not the type of player who will be selected in the first round of the next draft, but you never know, maybe he will be selected in the other rounds in the next two years.
