Winnipeg Jets rookie Patrik Laine leaves game in Buffalo during 3rd period

With 14:13 left in the 3rd Sabres defenceman Jack McCabe leveled Jets rookie Patrik Laine with an open ice hit.  It forced Laine from the game as he was down onthe ice for a few minutes and was then helped off.

After the game coach Maurice didn’t have an update on Laine’s status.  According to Jeff Hamilton of the Winnipeg Free Press he saw Patrik Laine walking to the bus under his own power.  Here is video from Jeff of Laine leaving on his own:

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
