Ducks winger Frank Vatrano needed emergency medical attention Tuesday night after he was drilled near his eye by a puck.

The scary scene unfolded early in the third period of Anaheim’s comeback road win over the Penguins at PPG Paints Arena, when Vatrano went to block a Connor Clifton shot.

The puck ended up careening upward off Vatrano’s stick and struck him right in the cheek. The former All-Star immediately skated off the ice in pain, and blood could be seen pooling around his face as he bolted toward the locker room.

Vatrano, 31, later returned to the bench and watched the Ducks pull off a miraculous win.

Skating shorthanded and down 3-2, Beckett Sennecke tied things up with just one second remaining in the game. Anaheim went on to tally a win in an overtime shootout, 4-3.
