Holloway in alert, stable condition after injury

Dylan Holloway left Tuesday's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning in the first period and did not return.

Holloway appeared to be hit with a shot up high late in the first period. He finished his shift but was attended to on the bench by team medical personnel. Officials ended the first period with 1:11 left and added the time onto the start of the second period.

Holloway was transported to the hospital for continued monitoring and was alert and in stable condition.

"I think the only way I can put it to you guys (the media) is if you're at work, you get a call that one of your family members is sick and rushed to the hospital," Blues Head Coach Drew Bannister said of his perspective of the injury from the bench. "Holly is a family member. That was a tough. I thought we, as a group, showed a lot of fortitude mentally being able to push through that... We were able to get updates on Holly and kind of put our minds at ease a little bit, and we focused ourselves.

"From what we've heard, he's doing well. It's a good sign."
