Ville Heinola Might Miss Extended Time Due To Ankle Issue
3 months agoWinnipeg Jets defenseman Ville Heinola (ankle) is in danger of missing significant time due to an infection in his surgically repaired ankle. Heinola broke his ankle in the team's final preseason game a year ago. The 23-year-old missed the entire 2023-24 campaign, and it looks like Heinola could be absent for a large chunk of 2024-25 as well. Heinola made his NHL debut in 2020-21 after being the 20th pick in the 2019 draft. He has skated in 35 regular-season contests, registering one goal and 10 assists.
