NEW Jersey Devils defensemen Anssi Salmela of Finland has been taken off the ice on a stretcher after taking a hard shoulder to the face from the Philadelphia Flyers' Jeff Carter.
Moments after scoring a short-handed goal that gave the Devils a 2-0 lead in the second period on Monday, Salmela was struck hard by Carter's right shoulder as he skated by. Salmela tumbled to the ice and remained face down for several minutes, until the Devils' medical staff lifted him onto a stretcher.
There was no immediate word on his condition.
The 25-year-old Salmela, playing his second game since arriving as part of last week's trade with Atlanta for Ilya Kovalchuk, has scored two goals this season.
