Scotty Upshall ends Panik's night with a crushing open ice hit. (VIDEO)

The Florida Panthers were taking on the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight, and Scotty Upshall made his presence felt early. Midway through the second period the Panthers' Upshall completely destroyed Leaf Richard Panik with a crushing open ice hit that had him stumbling back to the bench. Panik initially tried to bounce right back up, but almost immediately lost his balance and fell back to the ice. Panik would leave the game and not return, and based on his reaction to the hit one would think a concussion is likely.
