The Hurricanes are reporting that Cam Ward is stable condition after suffering a laceration to the left leg by Rick Nash during the first period of the Carolina/Columbus game on Saturday night. Hurricanes coach Paul Maurice had this to say about the injury after the game:

Maurice was almost ashen after the 3-2 loss to the Jackets. His voice almost broke when he was asked about Ward possibly being sidelined.
“That’s going to be tough to take,” he said. “But it’s where we’re at.”
Ward should return to Raleigh on Sunday and Michael Leighton will replace Ward during that time. This is not the first time Ward has suffered cuts to his legs, then Rangers forward Brad Isbister cut Ward’s knee in 2007. The video of the incident is below.
