"We heard he’s doing all right, and he’s going to be fine," Bruins star David Pastrnak said.
The glass that fell on Foley, who is a commercial coordinator, separated the Bruins’ penalty box from the crowd. Play resumed with a police officer in the stands to maintain a barrier.
According to ESPN, fans were banging on the glass causing it to dislodge and fall onto Foley.
