Panthers' Aaron Ekblad: Suffering from concussion

Ekblad suffered a concussion in Saturday's game against the Lightning, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

Ekblad exited during the second period of the contest, recording just 7:34 of ice time prior to his departure. He tallied two shots on goal, two hits and a blocked shot before a hit against the boards sent him to the locker room. More information on his status should arise in the next couple days, but unless he progresses through the protocol quickly, the blueliner may be sidelined for Tuesday's contest against the Maple Leafs.
