Sabres announcer Rick Jeanneret 'doing well' after being hospitalized

After a scary incident Saturday night, Buffalo Sabres broadcaster Rick Jeanneret is doing well and resting at Buffalo General Medical Center, the team announced in a statement.

"Sabres broadcaster Rick Jeanneret, who was hospitalized at Buffalo General Medical Center last night, is resting and doing well," the statement read. "On behalf of Rick and his family, we'd like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. Rick looks forward to being back in the booth after the break."

Jeanneret was taken away from KeyBank Center in a stretcher during the third period of Saturday night's game against the Anaheim Ducks. He was feeling light-headed and stopped talking during the broadcast.

The 76-year-old also texted The Athletic's John Vogl Sunday morning to update his status.

Jeanneret has been with the Sabres since 1971 and was honored by the Hockey Hall of Fame with the Foster Hewitt Award for outstanding broadcasting in 2012.
