PHILADELPHIA -- Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Chris Tanev was taken to the hospital after an on-ice collision with another player in Saturday night's 5-2 win over Philadelphia but had movement in all extremities, coach Craig Berube said.
Tanev collided with Philadelphia forward Matvei Michkov with 11:37 to play in the game. The contact was shoulder-to-shoulder, but Tanev's head snapped back upon contact and he stayed face down on the ice.
Trainers attended to him and stabilized his head and neck before lifting him onto a stretcher and wheeling him off the ice.
