Borowiecki was on the ice after losing an edge in the corner prior to the hit. Westgarth received a two-minute minor penalty for boarding, while Borowiecki was assisted off the ice.
Waiting for an update on Borowiecki, but doubt he will be return. He is injured. Team not happy Westgarth only received a minor penalty.
