A scary incident brought an abrupt end to Dustin Byfuglien's night Thursday.

After tallying two goals in the Winnipeg Jets' 5-4 overtime win over the Nashville Predators, Byfuglien fell awkwardly midway through the third period.

Byfuglien - who was writhing on the ice - was forced from the game, but will make the trip to Minnesota where he will be further evaluated before Friday's contest.
