Liles was killing a penalty five minutes into the game, had
ventured deep into the Lightning zone and appeared to trip over
the stick of goaltender Ben Bishop and slid hard into the
boards.
Liles lay motionless on his back for more than a minute before
help arrived. He was helped to his feet and then off the ice --
going right to the Bruins dressing room.
The team announced in the second period that Liles would not
return.
