Sandis Vilmanis Injured and Ruled Out Following Tom Wilson Hit

Florida Panthers forward Sandis Vilmanis was forced to leave Saturday's game against Washington and did not return after taking a hit from behind by Tom Wilson. The 22-year-old, coming off his first career two-goal game on Wednesday against Chicago, was driven head-first into the boards and glass during the first period. Wilson received a major penalty for boarding and a game misconduct for the hit on Vilmanis.
