Juraj Slafkovsky endures big hit by Canes' Stefan Noesen

In a pivotal moment during the third period of the Carolina Hurricanes' clash with the Montreal Canadiens, Carolina's Stefan Noesen delivered a thunderous hit on the Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky at the 5:26 mark.

Noesen's shoulder made contact near Slafkovsky's mouth, leaving the Canadiens player struggling to rise, eventually prompting his retreat to the locker room for an evaluation, possibly for concussion symptoms.

Canadiens forward Josh Anderson provided a reassuring update on Slafkovsky's condition.

"I talked to him a little bit after, and he said he was OK, so we'll see," Anderson stated.

Here's the video of the incident:
