Yikes. Is there any update on his condition?
He died :(
Edit:
I hope these sources appease everyone seeking sources

Do you have a source for that? I saw some people saying this, but never a source to go with it, just speculation.
Edit: yes, this has been confirmed. The comments asking for sources were from before any confirmation could be found.
The team said: "The Nottingham Panthers are truly devastated to announce that Adam Johnson has tragically passed away following a freak accident at the game in Sheffield last night.
From the article. Don't mean that to sound harsh
That’s a relatively recent update since when the article was posted.
They updated it a couple hours ago
I think we should wait for some form of confirmation on that one before we start rushing to say someone has died.
They died.
Yeah, I could see neck guards becoming required equipment after this. Safety regulations are built on blood
