DALLAS (AP) - NHL linesman Steve Miller left Tuesday night's game between the Detroit Red Wings and Dallas Stars with concussion-like symptoms.

Miller hit his head in the first period when he accidentally collided with Stars defenseman Mark Fistric.

Miller left the ice and was treated by Stars medical personnel, who ruled him out for the rest of the game.

The remainder of the game was officiated by two referees and one linesman.
