GUYS:
Mobilx Newcastle Vipers defenceman Ryan Mahrle was stretchered off the ice in the first minute of Saturday night's third period in Cardiff.
The game was held up for ten minutes while Mahrle was treated at the site and taken from the playing area.
At this moment in time (11.37pm Saturday) the extent of any injury is not known. Once we have definitive information this page will be updated.
We understand that there are several rumours in the public domain regarding the injury. We would ask that supporters do not spread these rumours as they are unhelpful and possibly upsetting for Ryan's family.
The Vipers will update this as soon as information is available.

Good news from Vipers website!
Ryan Mahrle injury - Sunday night update

Mobilx Newcastle Vipers defenceman Ryan Mahrle was stretchered off the ice in the first minute of Saturday night's third period in Cardiff.

Ryan spent a couple of hours in hospital but was released to travel on the team coach back to the north east.
He has sustained injuries to his back and head and will be fully assessed this week.
After the game on Sunday, head coach Rob Wilson said: "Ryan went in for the puck and knew Brad Voth was behind him. He took a really hard knock, Ryan paid the price for not bailing out of the hit - that's the kind of kid he is. He knew he was going to get crushed, and ended up worse for wear for it.
"I don't think he'll play Wednesday [at Nottingham], he has told me he wants to but I think he's doubtful for the weekend.
"He's a little stiff and sore, and he was knocked out for a short while so there's a concussion as well. I think we need to watch him and see how he is over the next couple of days."

The way i saw it was he knew the hit was coming and was thinking too much about that which meant he lost an edge and voth went down with him. Have seen it loads of times players too worried about the hit as much as wilson thinks he didnt bail out losing an edge like that is very dangerous for the checking player as if he doesnt go down he hits the boards face first!
