Rangers vs. Penguins: Dan Girardi 'Fine' After Taking Puck to the Jaw in Game 1

Dan Girardi was on the ice this morning after taking a puck to the side of the face last night in Game 1, and said he is 'fine'.

The New York Rangers dodged a massive bullet this morning as Dan Girardi took to the ice for today's scheduled practice at the MSG Training Center. Girardi left late in the game last night against the Pittsburgh Penguins after he took an errant puck to the side of his jaw, and left the ice in visible discomfort. There was about nine minutes left in regulation at that point, and Girardi never returned to the bench following the incident.
