Bruins’ goalie OK after taking puck to throat

BOSTON

Boston Bruins prospect Malcolm Subban is in stable condition after fracturing his larynx during an American Hockey League game on Saturday.

The Bruins say in a statement on their website Sunday that the goalie was transported to Maine Medical Center and stayed there overnight after being struck in the throat with a puck during warmups before Providence’s game against the Portland Pirates.

Subban was transported to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston on Sunday for further evaluation.

Subban, the younger brother of Montreal Canadiens star P.K. Subban, tweeted a photo of himself from the hospital Sunday night with the caption: “Thanks for all the support!”

The 22-year-old Subban is 14-8-5 with the Bruins’ AHL team this season.

NBA reviewing intentional foul rules

NEW YORK

The NBA is reviewing whether the act of jumping on a player’s back to intentionally foul him should be interpreted as a flagrant foul.

Boston Celtics coach Brad Stevens told reporters Sunday that a memo from the NBA said that act would now be ruled as a flagrant 1 foul. But a league spokesman says there has been no rule change, only that league officials are discussing how the play should be interpreted.

If it became a flagrant 1, the team that was fouled would keep possession after the two free throws.

“Telling a guy he can’t jump on someone’s back is not that big of a rule change,” Los Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers said.
