Updated 3x at 1:47 AM: Sedin has been released from the hospital, and there's a longer video of the incident in the extended text portion of this entry.

Very scary stuff in Vancouver. From @myregularface on Twitter, Daniel Sedin got banged-up in a bad way in the Canucks' regular-season finale against Calgary on Sunday evening (the third period is underway as I file this entry)...

Here is the hit that has severely injured Sedin http://t.co/Xdy6lin7Na

#Canucks are headed to the powerplay. 5 minute major to Paul Byron.

Henrik has left the bench, obviously to check on his brother. #Canucks

Daniel Sedin stopped short of the boards and his numbers were square just before Byron pushed him in the back. Bad boarding call. #Canucks

Daniel was conscious and appeared alert down here. Early indications from those that know seem to think he's okay.

Daniel Sedin being taken by paramedics to Ambulance and then hospital. Be well Daniel..be well. He is conscious as I watched him go by.

There are rumblings of security concerns, talk of getting Nhl security on Flames bench. Worry of things getting ugly here, Flames Canucks.

Update:

Daniel exhibited signs of movement to his extremities and showed improvement from initially being hit.
— Vancouver Canucks (@VanCanucks) April 14, 2014

No assessment will be made until completion of his evaluation.
— Vancouver Canucks (@VanCanucks) April 14, 2014

A significant increase in security by Flames dressing room area and walk-off at Rogers Arena. Officials being cautious after Sedin incident.

Good news - Daniel Sedin has been released from the hospital. #canucks
