Canucks' Philip Larsen: Exits Tuesday's contest on stretcher

Larsen left Tuesday's game against the Devils on a stretcher and will not return, Dan Murphy of Sportsnet reports.

Analysis:

Larsen was hit hard along the boards by Taylor Hall early in the road contest, leaving him unconscious on the ice; he had to be stretchered off and taken to the hospital. The Canucks will likely release more information on the 26-year-old blueliner's status after he undergoes medical evaluation. Until further notice, his status for Thursday's game against the Lightning is questionable.
