Serious injury to Arizona’s attacker. He was taken off the ice on a stretcher, he finished this year

Elyton Arizona Coyotes’ elite striker Clayton Keller suffered a very nasty injury. He fell unhappily in a duel with the defender Meloch and ran his foot hard into the guardrail, even the doctors present at the stadium had to intervene. Keller was taken on a stretcher, but the player pointed a thumbs up to indicate that he was OK.

But it looked really scary. It had been the last five minutes that Keller had staggered and brutally hit the guardrail. He lost his balance behind the goal and flew in the direction of the fence, which he crashed into with his right knee. The 23-year-old attacker then remained lying on the ice and could not leave it alone.

The native of Chesterfield, Missouri had to be removed from the ice on a stretcher, but Keller showed a thumbs-up as he left the ice. But now he has a long pause. “We know that the injury will be of a long-term nature,“Coyotes coach Andre Tourigny said after the match.”It is extremely difficult to see him suffering from serious injuries,“the Arizona coach added.

This is not the first player to be so badly injured in an Arizona jersey. At the beginning of the year, the Czech Dmitry Yashkin was fouled by the knee, who will probably not start until the end of this season. In the end, Karel Vejmelka and two-goal Jan Jeník, who scored their third and fourth goals in their careers, shone with 40 interventions.

Keller himself commented on Twitter and thanked everyone. “I would like to thank my teammates, fans and doctors for their support. Unfortunately, the season is over for me, but I rest comfortably in the hospital. I’ll be back on the first day of next year.

During the day, Keller underwent broken leg surgery and, according to club information, did well. He was out of the game for four to six months. Theoretically, he could be ready to start the next year’s NHL.
