Linus Ullmark was helped off the ice with a lower-body injury midway through the third period on Tuesday in the Buffalo Sabres' 5-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators at KeyBank Center.
The Sabres goaltender had made 30 saves when he fell backwards awkwardly in the crease as the play went around the net with 9:32 remaining in the game. The officials stopped the clock and he was replaced in net by Carter Hutton, who made four saves in relief.
The Senators, who entered the game with the 31st-ranked power play in the NHL, went 3-for-4 with the man advantage to lift them to victory.
