Honestly, I’m baffled by this. I’ve been watching this sport for coming up to twenty years. And whilst these sorts of injuries are rare, they do happen.

    I’ve seen the incident and whilst it does look a bit unusual I’d be very hesitant to say it looks like intent to injure.

    Especially in a sport that makes it so easy for players to legally hurt each other.

        I’d rather not link it. It’s pretty easy to find if you Google it. I’d recommend having a finger over the pause button. I’ve tried my hardest to avoid seeing anything after the incident.

        As for the incident. I’m not convinced it was reckless. I’ve seen so many players completely lose their sh*t just by catching an edge on the ice. Let alone when they’re going in for a hit and loose an edge or catch a rut in the ice.
