BREAKING: Oilers Forward Confirmed INJURED After Dirty Headshot Hit
What we have learned from watching the Oilers in the 2021-22 playoffs is they sure love to get underneath their opponents skin in any given chance, tonight one forward specially did that- leading to the opposing team retaliating and throwing a dirty hit injuring the forward.
Kailer Yamamoto got underneath the Avalanche rosters skin from many moved, but this one stuck out the most. Stiff arming their teams star and number one player Nathan Mackinnon in the face.
The Avalanche were quick to respond, but not in the proper way. Captain Gabriel Landeskog threw a head shot hit on the Edmonton forward causing him to leave the game, and his return to this series is now uncertain.
