Senators' head physician in critical condition

TSN is reporting that Dr. Donald Chow, the Ottawa Senators' head physician, is in critical condition after a motorcycle accident. Dr. Chow was riding his motorcycle when it slammed into the passenger side door of another car, and he was thrown from his bike and rushed to hospital.

He is currently listed as being in critical condition with severe head and chest injuries, while the driver of the vehicle suffered minor injuries.

Update: The Ottawa Sun is reporting that Dr. Chow is currently in a coma.

Our thoughts are with Dr. Chow, his family and his friends at this time.
