Video: Manson exits, won’t return after Forsberg hit

The hit that knocked Anaheim defenseman Josh Manson out of Friday night’s tilt will sideline him for the remainder of the contest.

Manson, caught by a high check from Nashville’s Filip Forsberg during Game 1 of the Ducks-Preds series, was ruled out during the second intermission, per ESPN.

It’s a significant loss for the Ducks, who are already without Kevin Bieksa on the blueline. Manson had a solid regular season for the Ducks, appearing in 71 games while averaging nearly 19 minutes a night. The son of ex-NHLer Dave Manson finished the year with five goals and 15 points.

Forsberg wasn’t penalized on the play.
