Vokoun, who entered the game with a 2.74 goals-against average and three shutouts, was blindsided by Ballard after Ilya Kovalchuk scored at 8:54 of the first to give the Thrashers a 2-1 lead. Ballard attempted to break his stick on the goal post in frustration, but instead drilled his goaltender in the head.
Trainers tended to Vokoun on the ice and he was taken to an Atlanta hospital to be treated for a deep cut to his ear. He was alert and responsive on his way to the hospital
