Boston Bruins forward Nathan Horton was taken out of play for the remainder of the 2011 Stanley Cup series after sustaining head injury during game three. (Aaron Rome received a four-game suspensionfor that hit).
At least some reports described Horton as visitingthe locker room after that hit, suggesting that a duration of loss of consciousness consistent with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI).
More recently, Horton sustained another blowto the head on January 22. Since that event, e has been noted to report fogginess and headaches which are part of the post-concussive syndrome which may follow mild TBI. |
