Vancouver Canucks defenseman Aaron Rome was ejected from last night's game against the Anaheim Ducks after elbowing Ducks winger Devante Smith-Pelly in the head during the second period.
According to the official boxscore, Rome was given a five minute elbowing penalty and a 10 minute game misconduct penalty. We'll see if any additional punishment comes his way.
Smith-Kelly was treated in the locker room and returned to the game. The Ducks won 4-3.
