A scary scene developed during ECHL action Friday.
A game between the Quad City Mallards and the Tulsa Oilers - a St. Louis Blues affiliate - was postponed after Oilers coach and former NHL forward Rob Murray suffered a medical emergency during the second period.
An update was later offered by the team's vice president of communications:
Murray, 50, appeared in 107 NHL games and spent the majority of his career in the AHL. He previously served as head coach of the ECHL's Alaska Aces, leading the team to a league championship in 2013-14.
