Logan Thompson made a swift return to the net for the Capitals after a concerning injury during Game 3. Initially stumbling off the ice with a potential lower-body issue, he later clarified his main concern was a head injury from the collision with teammate Dylan Strome. Despite the incident appearing grave, Thompson is grateful it wasnât more severe. He acknowledged needing to follow concussion protocols due to an earlier injury and expressed no ill will towards Strome, recognizing his own misreading of the play that caused the crash.
When he exited the ice in Game 3, Thompson appeared to have a lower-body injury, seeming to struggle to put any weight on his left leg, but his comments Sunday night suggest that his head was the primary concern.
I kind of got my bell rung a bit there. You know, scary. I think it definitely could have been a lot worse.
But coming back from an injury, I had to do some protocol. I kind of lost my balance getting up. But luckily things were okay, and I'm able to play.
It's a crappy play to be a part of, and it wasn't intentional. Just thankful that I'm able to play today.
