PHILADELPHIA -- Philadelphia Flyers forward Daymond Langkow
returned for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals against New
Jersey on Monday night after sitting out two games with a
concussion.
The center, who had not missed a game since being acquired by
the Flyers in December 1998, was hurt in a collision with Devils
defenseman Scott Stevens about a minute after scoring the winning
goal in Philadelphia's 4-3 victory in Game 2.
"There are no symptoms at all," Langkow said Monday after the
morning skate. "I missed a couple of games but I don't think it
will take too much to get back in there."
Langkow, who has five goals in the playoffs, played in 138
consecutive regular-season games and 19 playoff games before the
injury.
He was back in the starting lineup on the Flyers' top line
Monday between John LeClair and Mark Recchi and recorded
Philadelphia's first shot on goal. |
