Capitals' Nick Jensen is conscious and alert after being stretchered off the ice
WASHINGTON (AP) — Washington Capitals say defenseman Nick Jensen is conscious, alert and using his extremities after being stretchered off the ice following a scary collision.
Jensen’s head hit the boards and his body went limp after being shoved by Tampa Bay’s Michael Eyssimont late in the first period of the teams’ game Saturday. He was attended to by medical personnel for several minutes, after trainers called for the stretcher.
Officials postponed the final 1:31 of the first period to be played after intermission. There was no penalty called on the play, referee Frederick L’Ecuyer said, leading to boos from the crowd.
The Capitals and Lightning were tied at 2 when Jensen was injured.
