Nikolay Kulemin's night ended early Tuesday when the New York Islanders forward was ejected for hitting Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Stuart into the boards from behind in the second period.
Stuart was prone on the ice for some time but remained in the game after skating gingerly to the bench. Kulemin was assessed a game misconduct and a major penalty for boarding, and Winnipeg scored a pair of goals on the ensuing power play to take a 2-1 lead.
