Here's another look at the play that sent Stall down the tunnel early.
Luckily, disaster was avoided. Stall miraculously returned to the Carolina bench for the start of the 3rd period.
Good news to start the third period for the #Canes, as Captain Jordan Staal is back after missing the back half of the second.
