SAD NEWS : Oiler key player Suffers “Deep Cut” Leg Injury

Former Oiler Suffers “Deep Cut” Leg Injury

Expect a more aggressive Jordan Eberle down the stretch for Islanders | amNewYork

If you stop and think about it, the game of ice hockey seems a bit dangerous. A dozen grown men put boots with sharp metal blades on the bottom of them – and proceed to spend an hour using long sticks to whack a rubber object into a net.

It’s no surprise that players can suffer any variety of injuries along the way. Some are unlucky situations, some are freak accidents, and some are malicious. 

The Edmonton Oilers are no stranger to this. Almost one year ago Evander Kane suffered a cut wrist that limited him to just 41 games played.

Current Seattle Kraken forward (and former Oiler) Jordan Eberle just suffered a skate injury of his own. Geoff Baker of The Seattle Times reports that Eberle suffered a “deep cut” near his quad muscle.

Eberle was scheduled to receive an MRI to ensure a tendon wasn’t cut. Obviously, you hope the injury is as minor as possible.
