Subban, the younger brother of Montreal Canadiens star P.K. Subban, tweeted a photo of himself from the hospital Sunday night with the caption: “Thanks for all the support!”

The 22-year-old Subban is 14-8-5 with the Bruins’ AHL team this season. He has a 2.44 goals-against average and .911 save percentage.
