Howard injury update

I cannot seem to find anything about Howard's condition after the knee to the head other than HSJ's and Khan's tweets.

Both report that he was ok and wanted to come back in.

Seems like just got knocked a little loopy, but is that the real story?

Seems like an issue with his contact lens more than concussion protocol stuff. Which is good news.

Jimmy Howard started in net but left with 12:51 remaining in the game when he was kneed in the head by Dallas forward Jason Spezza on a drive to the crease and replaced by Petr Mrazek.

Coach Jeff Blashill said after the game Howard was fine and dealt with a contact lens issue more than anything.

"He wanted to come back (into the game) but it had been too long (out of the game)," Blashill said.
