I was at the game and it was tough to see. All of the players on both teams were upset as were the fans. Poor David Backes took it hard plus I believe he himself is injured.Not sure how Backes is doing, but for Sabourin... IMO it looks like the majority of the (visible) damage wasn't done on the hit with Backes, but rather the hit with the ice afterwards.
I am happy he is going to be released from the hospital. I wish him a speedy recovery.
