PHILADELPHIA (AP) \u2014 Toronto Maple Leafs<\/a> defenceman Chris Tanev<\/a> was taken to the hospital after an on-ice collision with another player in Saturday night\u2019s 5-2 win over Philadelphia but had movement in all extremities, coach Craig Berube<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

Tanev collided with Philadelphia forward Matvei Michkov<\/a> with 11:37 to play in the game. The contact was shoulder-to-shoulder, but Tanev\u2019s head snapped back upon contact and he stayed face down on the ice.<\/p>\n

Trainers attended to him and stabilized his head and neck before lifting him onto a stretcher and wheeling him off the ice. It was Tanev\u2019s first game back after missing four with a concussion. Michkov was assessed a minor for interference on the play.<\/p>\n

After the game, Berube said Tanev was taken to a Philadelphia hospital for testing and had movement in all extremities. He said there was a chance Tanev would fly home to Toronto with the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s moving and I think he\u2019ll be all right,\u201d Berube said. \u201cHe\u2019s getting some tests done, so we\u2019ll see. He might be coming home with us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tanev had an assist on a goal by Jake McCabe<\/a> in the second period.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a tough feeling, honestly because he\u2019s such an integral part of this team,\u201d said Auston Matthews<\/a>, who scored a goal in the victory. \u201cAny time they bring out a stretcher, it\u2019s not a good feeling deep inside. We\u2019re all obviously thinking about him, praying for him and hoping for the best.\u201d<\/p>\n
