Arizona Coyotes forward Alexander Burmistrov was stretchered out of Tuesday's game against the Boston Bruins following a hit by defenseman Colin Miller.
Teammate Jakob Chychrun responded to the hit immediately after, taking Miller to the ice.
Miller was issued a major penalty and game misconduct on the play.
