Matt Beleskey's return to Anaheim was less than ideal.
The Bruins forward, who spent six seasons with the Ducks prior to signing with Boston as a free agent last summer, was on the wrong end of a high stick early in Friday's 4-0 loss.
Thankfully, he was able to return after suffering a fairly standard injury.
"It was a little scary at first, but vision's good and all that," he said postgame. "So just another black eye."
While Beleksey has had better nights, he was grateful for the warm welcome back to Anaheim.
Not the outcome I was looking for but you fans were awesome , Thanks for the love and support!
