Ruutu received 5 minutes for boarding along with a 10 and game misconduct.
from Adrian Dater of All Things Avs,
...it seems like Darcy Tucker escaped potentially catastrophic injury tonight. After being taken from the ice on a stretcher from Tuomo Ruutu’s hit from behind, eyewitnesses said later tonight that Tucker walked out of the Pepsi Center. He was on his way to the hospital for further tests, but Avs personnel told me Tucker appears to have “escaped” with a concussion and stitches to the head.
added 11:40am, According to Ben Hankinson, Ruutu receives a 3 game suspension.
