Heartbreaking :(

The Blue Jackets aren’t ready to move on without injured right wing Nathan Horton yet.

But optimism is fading that Horton will be able to play this season, and there’s growing concern that the 29-year-old’s career might be finished.

Horton, who signed a seven-year, $37.1 million free-agent contract with the Blue Jackets in the summer of 2013, has been diagnosed with “degeneration” of the entire lumbar region of his spine, or the lower back, sources told The Dispatch.

Surgery has not been scheduled or ruled out, but it is viewed as a last resort, sources said. It’s a delicate procedure, with no guarantee of relief.

“Nathan is a frustrated kid right now,” said his agent, Paul Krepelka. “This is normally a really easygoing guy, a happy guy, but he’s just so frustrated by all of this.

“He signed with Columbus to make an impact, to play a big role on a team that’s on the rise. He was so excited about doing it. The fact that he hasn’t been able to make any meaningful contributions is just extremely frustrating to him.”

Even Dallas roots for the Ducks. Look how excited they look.

NHL is considering cancelling tonight's Sens-Leafs game and rescheduling at a later date.

Yeah, probably for the best. The worst thing that could happen is having a mass gathering of people the same day as a shooting.

wow just saw the phone video captured from inside Parliament, shit is scary

I saw the Globe and Mail video. That might be the same footage you saw. That was intense.

CP24 says one gunman is killed. Is there more than one?

Also, stay safe, Ottawa-GAF.

Beyond fucked up seeing a place of where you work at and there everday on CNN. Surreal.

I am safe at home in Gatineau, took the day off today. The bridges are closed now apparently.

Apparently there was another shooting beside the Rideau mall which is pretty much connected to the hotel that the Leafs are staying at.

This shit in Ottawa is crazy. Hope everyone's staying safe up there. Glad to see you're safe and out of harm's way, Cake Boss.

Well I am in lockdown at work right now and may be here for a while. This turned what was supposed to be an exciting day into an absolute nightmare. :-(
