The NHL's Department of Player Safety may have another situation to examine as Ottawa Senators defenseman Mark Borowiecki left Sunday's game against Carolina after this hit from Hurricanes forward Kevin Westgarth.

Borowiecki was on the ice after losing an edge in the corner prior to the hit. Westgarth received a two-minute minor penalty for boarding, while Borowiecki was assisted off the ice.
Waiting for an update on Borowiecki, but doubt he will be return. He is injured. Team not happy Westgarth only received a minor penalty.
