by Josh Gold-Smith from on (#3D928)
Phillip Danault is on the mend.
The Montreal Canadiens forward was released from a local hospital Sunday and is now resting at home, according to the club.
Danault was hospitalized after taking a Zdeno Chara slap shot to the head in Saturday night's game against the Boston Bruins. He stayed there overnight after being stretchered off the ice late in the second period.
Chara stood near Danault in the immediate aftermath as medical personnel attended to the Canadiens center, and then expressed remorse and concern for Danault in his postgame comments.
