New York Rangers forward Sean Avery has been sent to hospital after lacerating his spleen during a playoff loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The injury occurred after New York's 5-3 loss to the Penguins on Tuesday night. Avery was taken to St. Vincent's hospital and was admitted after a CT scan, a statement from Rangers general manager Glen Sather said.
Avery, 28, will be out of the Rangers lineup for the remainder of the season but is expected to make a full recovery, according to the team's official Website.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Web site of the New York Daily News reported that Avery was rushed to the hospital in cardiac arrest. The newspaper said Avery was unconscious and not breathing when he was taken to St. Vincent's.
A witness at the hospital said that Avery arrived at the medical centre at about 3 a.m. on Wednesday.
Avery had an assist on the Rangers' second goal in Tuesday's loss. The forward has a total of four goals and three assists in eight playoff games this season.
The noted agitator was also the subject of controversy earlier in the first round of the playoffs against the New Jersey Devils when he fronted Martin Brodeur in the crease and waved his stick from side to side in an attempt to screen the goaltender.
That prompted the NHL to quickly make an on-the-fly rule interpretation in an effort to eliminate that type of play.
The Rangers trail the Penguins 3-0 in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinal series with Game 4 scheduled for Thursday night at Madison Square Garden (7 p.m. ET, CBC, CBCSports.ca).

It's not so much the fact that the Devils are out of the playoffs, or that they lost to the Rangers, what really pisses me off are the Devils fans. How in the hell do you let that many Rangers fans get tickets. It sounded like a home game for NY, that's really disappointing and EVERY so called Devils fan that lives in the area should be ashamed. Seriously it made me want to puke.

Avery act prompts NHL to amend unsportsmanlike rule
Rangers forward blocked vision of New Jersey's Brodeur by waving stick in goalie's face
Sean Avery no longer will be waving his stick in the faces of goalies at a National Hockey League arena near you.
The league acted swiftly on Monday, changing the interpretation of Rule 75 — unsportsmanlike conduct — to eliminate such activity.
"An unsportsmanlike conduct minor penalty will be interpreted and applied, effective immediately, to a situation when an offensive player positions himself facing the opposition goaltender and engages in actions such as waving his arms or stick in front of the goaltender's face, for the purpose of improperly interfering with and/or distracting the goaltender as opposed to positioning himself to try to make a play," Colin Campbell, the NHL director of hockey operations said in a statement.
