Streamable

It was a scary sight early in Sunday's matinee between the Winnipeg Jets and the Los Angeles Kings.

With the Kings already up 1-0, Kings forward Kyle Clifford crunched Jets forward Kyle Connor into the end boards with a punishing hit.

The impact left Connor motionless on the ice for several seconds before he was able to get up and head to the dressing room under his own power. Clifford received a five-minute major for boarding, a penalty the Jets would take advantage of by scoring twice to take a 2-1 lead.
