Vancouver Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo left the game against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday with an apparent left leg injury.
Luongo, a two-time NHL All-Star, was injured while making what appeared to be a routine save on a shot by Philippe Boucher about 5 minutes into the game. He slowly collapsed to the ice and was assisted off while favoring his left leg.
No official word on his condition was immediately available.
Curtis Sanford replaced Luongo in goal.
