Tigers Nassen to miss 6-8 weeks with UBI
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Linus Nassen will miss the next 6-8 weeks healing up a broken bone near his wrist.
The Swedish rookie defenceman for the Medicine Hat Tigers sustained the injury in Monday’s overtime win against the Kootenay ICE.
“He went in fairly hard on the boards, going back to retrieve a puck,” said Tigers head coach & GM Shaun Clouston. “It was quite sore. He didn’t play the last shift or two in Kootenay, didn’t play in overtime, and then got an x-ray.”
