Scary stuff on Saturday: multiple reporters (including the Maine Hockey Journal’s Chris Roy) note that Malcolm Subban was taken to a hospital after a puck struck his throat during warm-ups.
There’s no word yet on Subban’s condition beyond that he was taken away in an ambulance.
The AHL’s Providence Bruins seem like they’ve been left scrambling for a backup goalie in Subban’s absence.
.@AHLBruins are currently using Benn Ferriero has a backup G at the moment. He's not in gear. He's just sitting where the backup sits.

Subban stated days ago that he’s taken some significant steps forward during the 2015-16 season.
Update: This seems fairly positive.
Per the Providence Bruins, Malcolm Subban -- who sustained an "upper-body injury" in warmups -- is expected to travel back w/team tonight.
