Marc Staal
Took a deflected slapshot from Timonen in the right eye. Writhed in pain on the ice before getting up and heading to the locker room. That looked REALLY bad...ugh.

Visors are overrated, right!?
GO WINGS!
Garr, I heard about this but have avoided the video successfully so far. I took one in the eye in ball hockey last season and almost lost my vision (had a 97% chance to never see again). A week and a half of sitting straight up (sleeping sitting up too) staring straight ahead. No reading, no phone, no internet, nothing. I can say first hand I feel worse for him than I have for any pull, tear or break. Scary stuff for sure.
Oh and here's a link to what Eric said Marc's status is:

Basically waiting for the swelling to go down before they can see where he's at.
