Stamkos Injury

Post by sjnhiils »

Went pretty hard into the net in Boston today. Possible broken leg or ankle?

Doesn't look like a break. Hyperflexion of the knee is my guess.

Totally looks like a break. It looked like his kicked his calf. Grosssssss.

That's a bummer, I'm a big fan of Stamkos and everything he does for hockey.

Official word from the Lighting (tweeted by Bob Mackenzie): Fractured right tibia. Out indefinitely.

If it snapped high and by his knee, he's in for a long recovery.

Ugh, ugly one. This sucks, and feel for the kid.

I was always looking forward to seeing him for Team Canada.

Yes. Would have loved to see a line of St. Louis-Crosby-Stamkos.
