Senators goalie Craig Anderson stretchered off after collision in overtime

Ottawa Senators goalie Craig Anderson was run over by Dallas Stars rookie forward Valeri Nichushkin in overtime on Sunday and was clearly in pain.  Nichushkin appeared to land on Anderson’s neck, and bent it into a funny spot.  Anderson was stretchered off as a precaution and appears to be okay.

Very good sign, Anderson walked by still in his gear. Snuck a look at the monitor to see what was happening in the game.

Update on Craig Anderson: He has a stiff neck and will receive further evaluation tomorrow. It is unlikely he will play Tuesday.
