It was a scary scene when Washington Capitals star blueliner John Carlson took a puck to the head and bled profusely on the ice.

With no information on Carlson's state, Alex Ovechkin, a long-time teammate and close friend of Carlson's, was caught praying on the bench.

We are still not sure what Carlson's recovery time will be, but hopefully he returns soon.
