Ducks' Andersen 'fine' after crossbar hits him in the head
Tim Heitman / USA Today
Anaheim Ducks goaltender Frederik Andersen was forced to leave Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning with an undisclosed injury after the net came down on him in the third period.
The net came off its moorings after being nudged by Ducks defenseman Hampus Lindholm, and the crossbar appeared to hit Andersen in the back of the head.
Ducks head coach Bruce Boudreau was optimistic about Andersen's status after the game.
"It was a bit of a scare," Boudreau told reporters. "I just talked to him. He said he's fine."
