Game safety
The Ottawa Senators and Florida Panthers were dealing with 2 separate delays that left several players shaken. Both teams were sent to their dressing rooms with a remaining 3:37 in the first period as the emergency team were dealing with a fan in the stands who require CPR.
The remaining time was played at the start of a second but another delay occurred once Vincent Trochek twisted his right leg in an awkward manner that required a stretcher.
