Boston Bruins forward Anton Blidh was given a five-minute major Thursday night following a late hit on Nashville Predators defenseman Roman Josi.
Here's the play:
Josi had moved the puck and began to turn up ice when Blidh made contact.
The Predators' blue-liner left the game following the collision, and the club announced Josi won't return, diagnosed with an upper-body injury.
