After a scary incident Wednesday, Philadelphia Flyers forward Scott Laughton was released from hospital Thursday, the team announced.
The 21-year-old was admitted to Jefferson Hospital for precautionary reasons after he was stretchered off following a hit from Washington Capitals defenseman John Carlson in Game 4.
Thankyou to everyone for the well wishes and messages to me and my family. Means the world. Go flyers!!

Laughton is doing well, according to the team, but nevertheless won't travel with the team to Washington for Friday's Game 5. A further update will be given in the next couple days.
He is pointless with eight shots in three postseason games.
