I heard from one of the Ducks dad's who was there, the child was trying to defend against the boards and skating hard to the puck and made a hard stop on skates and with a shove from behind fell forward into the boards with his knee and twisted over the opposite way. There was talk the boy who may have hit him from behind may have fallen on him, but he said he didn't see anyone fall on him, but he immediately grabbed his leg. He was unable to get off the ice himself so was carried off. I'm assuming that's when the ambulance was called. The parents that we know said everyone was really concerned for him and his family as it looked pretty scary. His player was pretty upset as he felt so bad for him so I don't think anything was intentional. I wasn't there but that's what was shared by people who were and I don't think they are on the site to relay what they witnessed.
I hope he is okay and our hockey family is sending prayers that it isn't serious. I hate to see anyone get injured. If there are OC parents that know him or the family, are there any updates as to the injury? I hope it's not a broken leg or ACL injury??? What a shame to happen so close to the end of the season.
Prayers to the child who was injured...
