Calgary Flames forward Adam Ruzicka suffered an apparent arm or shoulder injury after being hit by Jimmy Vesey of the New York Rangers and crashing into the boards. Ruzicka left the ice and did not return for the second period. The Flames wanted a piece of Vesey and there were discussions between the referees and players. Ruzicka was later seen on the ice during practice but did not participate in line rushes. He remains day-to-day with a shoulder injury and did not play in the Heritage Classic against the Edmonton Oilers.

Adam Ruzicka is on the ice for #Flames practice at Commonwealth Stadium, although he's not participating in line rushes. Not a good sign for his availability for the Heritage Classic.

#Flames held a full morning skate today but didn’t run lines and pairings. Looks like Ilya Solovyov will indeed make his NHL debut, though. Jordan Oesterle working late, so he’ll come out of the lineup.
Adam Ruzicka, after a quick spin, is not participating in #Flames morning skate.
#Flames have recalled D Ilya Solovyov from the AHL's Calgary Wranglers. Why not a forward? Because Adam Ruzicka is on the ice this morning at the Saddledome. Phew.
Adam Ruzicka is on the ice for morning skate. #Flames
Adam Ruzicka skating this morning #flames
What's gone wrong for the #Flames? How concerning is Nazem Kadri's slow start? Who could be recalled from the minors if Adam Ruzicka goes on injured reserve? Myself and @DannyAustin_9 have our say in this instalment of Burning Questions ... https://t.co/Y8UlDf8sK9
No Adam Ruzicka as #Flames return for second period.
Not a good sign for #Flames ... Forward Adam Ruzicka heads straight to locker-room with apparent arm or shoulder injury. Crunched awkwardly into boards on hit by Jimmy Vesey of Rangers. Probably could have been a boarding minor.
Adam Ruzicka was down in the corner for a long time after he got hit by Vesey and fell into the boards. Flames didn't like it, and wanted a piece of Vesey. Refs talking to Trouba and CGY captain Mikael Backlund. Ruzicka left the ice. #NYR
#NYR Jimmy Vesey lands a massive hit on Adam Ruzicka along the board and the Flames forward is in pain. He heads to the locker room.
