Blackhawks Star Injured in First Period After Blocking A Massive Shot
The Blackhawks faced another setback they didn't need during today's game against the Vancouver Canucks.
In the first period, Blackhawks defenseman Connor Murphy exited the game after taking a hard shot to his left knee � a powerful one-timer from Canucks forward J.T. Miller. The pain was evident on Murphy's face immediately after blocking the shot.
Despite initially staying in the play, Murphy collapsed to the ice after the Canucks scored. The 30-year-old NHL veteran couldn't put any weight on his injured leg and had to be assisted off the ice by teammates.
Hobbling all the way to the Blackhawks locker room, there's no official word yet on Murphy's status for the rest of the game. The injury adds to the Blackhawks' challenges, and fans will be anxiously awaiting updates on Murphy's condition.
