The Pittsburgh Penguins and Tristan Jarry dodged the worst of what could have been a serious injury to the starting goalie.

Jarry immediately left the Penguins’ game Tuesday late in the second period against the Anaheim Ducks after being struck in the head by a puck. His mask had been loosened a moment before when Ducks forward Adam Henrique’s leg or hip made direct contact with Jarry’s head.

Jarry had a gash above his right eye and skated quickly to the locker room and did not return. The Penguins won 2-0.
