@@Dutchovenderlinde Well your comment is describing something we can all see. Waste of time reading it. So I’m glad he was “that guy”, because your comment sucks.
Doesn’t matter what team you’re a fan of in any kind of sport it’s scary injuries like this that makes you hold your breath. Ever since Ekblad came into The league in 2014-15 he’s impressed with his style of play and doing well this season. Sure hopes he’s ok and has a fast and good recovery.
Well said man. At the end of the day we are all fans of our teams but no one wants to see this. Poor guy man I really really hope he heals up quickly and can still play the game he loves at this level.
0:35 "That's broken for sure." Leg injuries like this always make me cringe. I've always liked Ekblad it sucks for this to happen to him, he was playing so well.
thats a season-ending injury for sure. Im not doctor, but that looked like he either snapped his ligaments in his knee. Probably ACL. If thats the case, you wont see him playing in the NHL for at least 1 year imo
@@gl7323 stretched or ripped ligaments for sure. ive gone feet first into the boards and had my left foot bend around like that and i had a grade 2 high ankle sprain and it put me out of hockey for a few months. foot hasnt been the same since. so i can only imagine what the knee will be like
He broke bones it goes beyond acl and mcl tears. Tibia platue fracture i did it a year and a half ago and im still messed up. Two plates amd 12 screws. To keep all the pieces of bones that shattered in place to heal. Basically when your knee bends from side to side instead of back and forth like they are supposed to.
It’s unbearable for anyone. When I fractured my foot, I was begging my son to knock me out. His aikido would have come in handy. Only remember is getting discharged in a cast....This was hard to watch....
@@bobabooey4537 Who cares about "old NHL"? No one even mentioned it. The fact is, hockey players are amongst the athletes with the highest pain threshold.
Yandle has played hundreds of games in a row, he understands just how fortunate it is to escape injury. Good to see that from him, great teammate. Wishing all the best for Ekblad.
You can't see his leg break and it's probably not a fracture. He flew back to Florida with the team. In case of a fracture he'd most likely still be in the hospital. High ankle sprain or knee ligaments injuries, maybe even both at the same time are more likely than a fracture.
His leg didn’t break in a likelihood. That looks like a knee ligament tear. He’ll get surgery and be back on skates next season if that’s the case. Those are always season enders
What a season he was having and to see that awkward fall and to hear him scream you know he is fighting some pain and also angry that he is done for this season and not be able to part of a great team effort. Best of luck brother and a speedy recovery and that you can be back for next season. Prayers go out to you Ekblad.
Keith Yandle should be captain of the panthers, he really deserves it shows great leadership and shows how much he really cares about his teammates with that reaction
Man, this is the WORST part about arenas being empty. I know players are in pain anytime they are injured, but hearing him scream is horrifying. You can tell he tore every ligament in that knee too. Prayers up man. Edit: The "oh it's broken for sure" is going to give me nightmares. Damn.
That was hard to watch, hope Aaron has a full recovery. Side note, to the camera op trying to get the exit shot kudos to you for bearing down the crack of the EMS worker.

I’m a stars fan and watching this game yesterday and seeing him in pain that way It broke my heart and I felt so bad for him like I hope he gets better soon yk. I just wanna give him a hug and take away that pain yk that’s just my inner mom coming out. But still my heart goes out to him and his family as well as the panthers and I wish them all the best and a healthy recovery
So brutal. I've had a similar injury (Hyper extended my knee and wrecked the connecting tissue. Nothing broken thankfully) and would never want that pain on anyone. I hope he recovers. Also reminds me of Polàk's injury a few years back.
From a Leaf fan I wish you a speedy and complete recovery Aaron. That was so awful to watch, looks season ending, let's hope that is not the case! Florida fans, I do hope you get him back sooner than later!!!
this was identical to trocheks injury a few years back and it took only until this year to find his game again. hopefully he fully recovers and comes back even better
@@Anonymous-op6nj I was referring to how Trocheck took a long time to recover and get his game back. I want Ekblad to recover. I understand that what I said was misleading and I apologize but the last thing we need is another incident similar to Trocheck’s.
Well wishes from a Hurricanes fan. The Panthers always give the canes a good game, hope he recovers as soon as he can and hopefully if the teams meet in the playoffs he can be back for that
I had a similar fall to this a few years ago. It ended up being something called a Maisonneuve Fracture. The broken leg is pretty quick to heal, but the ligament damage in my ankle required surgery and took forever to heal, plus had about 6 months of PT. Hopefully he's back sooner than me. I still haven't skated since.
this is probably the hardest hockey injury i have watched. Just looks so painful, and you know it’s gonna be a long term injury. I hope he gets back soon, and is able to fully recover!
As heartbreaking as this is, I am truly thankful this was not another head injury. His history with concussions and that could’ve been devastating on the remainder of his life. Almost didn’t want to watch out of fear of another. Get well soon, Ekblad.
I can't believe the person that wished this on Tampa or ANY other team for that matter! That is just sick! Get well soon Aaron, thankfully most people wish you a speedy recovery no matter what jersey you wear, we want to see you back in action quickly!!
I know right!? There's some awful people in this comments section wishing this on specific players even! Like, sure, I don't like Marchand either but I would NEVER wish this on a player! They are human beings people, jeez! Luckily the majority of people were compassionate. I hope that fan that yelled "soccer player!!!" feels like crap after they find out what happened to him.
Doesn’t matter your likes/dislikes/affiliations, you never want to see something like this happen to anyone (Brad Marchand-I’d have to think long and hard on that). Hope it’s only this season that’s affected and not anything beyond that. 🙏😷🤘
I remember watching highlights of Ekblad playing for the Barrie Colts. No matter what color jersey you represent, this is something no one ever wants to see. Hoping for a speedy and full recovery for Ekblad.
I’m actually crying. Like tears down my face . When he grabbed the trainers arm. I started crying . It’s bad! It’s bad! He says. Omfg I hope you get better . I used to watch this guy in junior . Scary stuff.. warriors on Ice.
He unfortunately definitely snapped a ligament of some sort with the way his leg bent backwards. So sad to see as a leafs fan you never want to see something like this. Great player.
From a bs fan I hope he comes back ASAP he’s such a talented player seeing yandles reaction and the scream of pain from Aaron makes you realize how bad this is geez
Bs fan here... I feel like he can't catch a break and I feel for the guy. Hes really a great player and the panthers are underrated. What a gut punch for the team I hate to see it
Man... kid finally figured it out and was having the year of his life... and now this... Absolutely brutal. Feel so bad for him. Praying for a quick recovery and that he can pick up where he left off next year.
JeanetteG the unfortunate thing is with these injuries it doesn't even matter. Huberdeau suffered an Achilles injury years back and only last year did he finally return to what looked like full form, trocheck had a similar injury to Ek but Ek got way luckier where he only just now returned to being a productive forward. I wish Ekblad has a full recovery
Sucks to see. That really hurts, it will take him out for long, he will be injury prone when he comes back, and he might not be the same player when he does. And he's been so good! I hope he will recover quickly, but I don't have much faith in that it will happen.
