A 19-year-old defenseman for Dynamo St. Petersburg's junior team died three days after taking a puck to the head during a playoff game, the KHL announced Tuesday.

Timur Faizutdinov collapsed on the ice after being struck by a puck shot from the neutral zone, according to The Associated Press. He was reportedly taken to the hospital in Yaroslavl and treated for his injuries.

KHL playoff games on March 17 and 18 will hold a moment of silence in Faizutdinov's memory.
