Buffalo dominated the first period, leading 4-1 at intermission. In the second period, Red Wings forward Joe Veleno took an accidental slap shot to the head from Connor Clifton.
Thankfully, Clifton showed sportsmanship by tapping Veleno with his stick to check on him. It's always worrying to see a player take a shot to the face, but hopefully, Veleno avoided serious injury.
It wasn't an easy night for Detroit as Buffalo ended up winning the game 7-3 against their division rival.
