Carolina Hurricanes right winger Kevin Westgarth could be getting a call from Brendan Shanahan after boarding Ottawa Senators defenceman Mark Borowiecki in Sunday afternoon’s game.
Early in the first period, Borowiecki slipped behind Ottawa’s net with the puck and slid into the boards. While Borowiecki was trying to get to his feet, Westgarth hit the Senator from behind.
Borowiecki stayed down on the ice for several minutes before being helped to the dressing room. He didn’t return to the game due to a neck strain.
Westgarth received a two-minute minor for hitting from behind.
