Vasily Podkolzin OK After Being Stretchered Off The Ice
1 year agoVancouver Canucks right wing Vasily Podkolzin has announced that he's "all good" after being involved in a scary incident in the AHL on Wednesday. In the Abbotsford Canucks' 5-2 victory over the Colorado Eagles, Podkolzin hit his head on the ice and appeared to have been convulsing after taking a hit from an opposition player. The 22-year-old was stretchered off the ice. It's great to see him doing fine, but it will now likely take some time until Podkolzin is ready to play again. The Russian winger has appeared in 118 NHL games, scoring 18 goals and amassing 33 points. He's yet to feature in the big league this season but has shown off impressive form in the minors, tallying seven points (five goals, two assists) in six AHL games.
