The biggest piece of the Washington Capitals blue line is defensemen John Carlson, he took a puck to the fact resulting in a serious amount of blood. Like any teammate would, Alex Ovechkin came right over to give him a hand, which can be seen below:
Carlson was immediately taken to the local hospital and it appears he has suffered facial fractures, the capitals revealed he will be out indefinitely until further notice.
After Carlson suffered the harsh injury cameras caught Alexander Ovechkin on the bench doing something special, that proves the game is a brotherhood.
Alex Ovechkin bent over and appeared to say a prayer for John Carlson on the bench after his longtime teammate got hit in the head by a slap shot. Carlson immediately went down to the locker room and was bleeding profusely.
This is truly a class act, Ovechkin and all other hockey players are truly family in some ways.
