And then there were three.
Friday's game between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Pittsburgh Penguins will continue with only three officials after referee Mike Leggo was forced to leave with an apparent illness during the first period.

The game was delayed for several minutes as Leggo made his way off the ice.
Get well soon, Mike. 2015 can only go up from here.
