Anisimov suffered a head injury last Thursday vs. Detroit and was rushed to the hospital. It sounds like Anisimov is recovering well from what looked like a serious injury and he won't be out as long as originally expected.

#CBJ update - Artem Anisimov has been released from the hospital in Detroit and will be returning to Columbus this afternoon.

Anisimov was hurt in a scary looking incident last night. Red Wings defenceman Kyle Quincey accidentally hit Anisimov in the face with his elbow as he fell to the ice. Anisimov laid on the ice motionless and was rushed to a local hospital. There is no timetable for his return at this point.

Torts also says that he will give Artem Anisimov shifts with different lines again tonight; says it's important to #NYR to get Artie going

Anisimov has been relegated to fourth line duties in recent games which is probably not the best place for him. Expect him to get a look with Marian Gaborik at some point during the game.

Rangers trainer Jim Ramsey was still tending to Anisimov late into the third period but it appears the winger is OK. Anisimov has five goals and 17 points in 25 games as he look to improve his point totals for the third consecutive season. Don't expect him to miss any playing time.
