Alexander Ovechkin was helped off the ice after his own hit on Tim Gleason.
Erik El-Bashir of the Washington Post is reporting that Ovechkin was walking after the game.
I caught up to Alex Ovechkin before he boarded the team bus following tonight's 3-2 win in Raleigh, but the star winger would only say "no comment" when I inquired about his knee and the first period hit that resulted in his ejection.
I did, however, get to observe him walking. He had a slight limp, but he did not appear to be wearing a brace and was not using crutches.
Here is the video of the hit:
