Player Leaves Game Injured Following Blind Side Hit From Jacob Trouba
In tonight's clash against the Calgary Flames, Jacob Trouba once again showcased his reputation as the NHL's fiercest hitter.
However, his thunderous hit had consequences as Flames' rookie Jakob Pelletier found himself on the receiving end.
Midway through the first period, Pelletier faced a precarious moment near the Flames' bench, where Trouba seized the opportunity and delivered a crushing blow, sending Pelletier crashing to the ice.
Flames forward Jakob Pelletier has gone to the dressing room after receiving this hit from Jacob Trouba.
The impact was significant, prompting Pelletier to swiftly retreat to the dressing room for evaluation. This incident raises concerns, particularly given Pelletier's history of shoulder injuries earlier in the season. With just 1 assist in 3 games, his absence could further challenge the Flames' lineup.
