Spoke to the Moose players about the situation on Saturday night.

On Saturday night the Moose were scheduled to play the final game of a five game road trip in Tuscon against the Roadrunners.  Just prior to puck drop Roadrunners captain Craig Cunningham required medical attention and the game was postponed.

Today was our first opportunity to speak to the Moose players about the situation that took place at the Tucson Convention Center.

Worth noting (and we learned this after our chats with the Moose players) but news from Arizona Coyotes head coach Dave Tippett via Sarah McLellan of the Arizona Republic indicated that “Cunningham is in stable but critical condition. His family is with him, and he’s receiving “unbelievable” care.”
