Leafs' Rielly returns to Game 7 after taking Chara slap shot to face

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly left Game 7 after taking a slap shot to the face off the stick of Boston's Zdeno Chara.

The incident occurred in the latter half of the opening frame, and Rielly left the ice on his own after a few moments.

Rielly was unable to get a good look at the shot with Brad Marchand right in front of him until the moment of impact.

He was, however, able to return for the second period with a stitched upper lip.
