Frederik Andersen was forced to exit Monday's game against Anaheim in the second period after Ducks forward Corey Perry caught the Toronto Maple Leafs goalie in the head with his skate while gliding through the crease.

Perry was not penalized on the play as it appeared to be incidental contact.

Andersen skated off the ice on his own, was replaced by Curtis McElhinney, and did not come back out for the start of the third period.

Head coach Mike Babcock offered the following update after the eventual 7-4 win:

How's Frederik Andersen?

Mike Babcock: "I think fine. I was just talking to him. He seems good."

Andersen will be evaluated further on Tuesday.
