Blackhawks forward seen wearing a sling: confirms long term injury

The Chicago Blackhawks season has been full of ups and downs, as the team took a massive loss to the Washington Capitals on Thursday losing 6-1.

They also took a massive loss to their Center depth, as they lost a developing forward this week.


Philip Kurashev took a hit from Tom Wilson during his 2nd shift in the game Thursday and did not return, as an upper-body injury was reported.


Now it seems that the injury has been clarified as Kurashev is currently in a sling, Wilson's hit must've done some more damage than we all originally thought.


Wilson is one of the last remaining power forwards in the game, who could also be considered a goon or enforcer in some fashion while putting up respectable offensive numbers.

That doesn't change the fact he's played with the intent to injure and has had no shame at times. This is the last thing the Blackhawks need after losing Sam Lafferty and Max Domi.
