Some tense moments in the AHL last night as a player needed to be stretchered off the ice following a big hit.

Tobias Bjornfot, a first-round pick of the LA Kings in 2019, was hammered into the boards while playing for the Ontario Reign. Coachella Valley Firebird Jacob Melanson was given a five-minute major for boarding, and a game misconduct.
According to Eric Stephens of The Athletic, Bjornfot was taken to hospital.

The Reign later confirmed that.
