Doctor evaluates Nikita Kucherov's injury after the hit by Toews

In case you missed it.

Kucherov left the game last night late in the third period.

Dr. Harjas Grewal, a former WHL player turned sports injury specialist, worries that Kucherov might have the bad high ankle sprain.

Worry about a medial/high ankle sprain for Kucherov

Luckily though his ankle was not stressed as much as most are so I expect a grade 1 injury at worst and I don't think he'll miss any SCF games

Mechanism also stresses knee MCL, but again not as severe as most so should be ok
