Goodbye Doctor

[diacope 1,593]

No it probably isn't a curse, nor extremely bad luck.. Kasper Kankkunen has been playing with a fractured elbow ever since taking a huge hit in the corner from Thomas Landry early in the season. 

 

Sources say team doctor Bear Vozenilek diagnosed the rookie with a bruised shoulder but totally missed the other injury while examinating, letting the Finnish defender go home with a no contact pratice order for only a few days. 

 

Surprisingly it's been almost 30 games after the grueling hit that sidelined the rookie and the injury seems to be healing normally despite playing over 25 minutes a game all this time, a true testament to this rookies grinding, never giving up personality and fight to remain as one of his draft classes best defenseman. 

 

Today the London United management decided to part ways with Dr. Vozenilek, firing him on the spot after finding out the news and immediately hired the assistant Drew Mato who we think noticed the misdiagnosed defender and brought it up to the organizations staff.

 

Little is known on if we'll see Kasper play next game or get a few games rest but if we could make a guess the resilient Kankkunen will get back on the ice with full confidence, knowing a little more about his recent struggles and pain, we do hope to see him electrify the fans again like he did at the beginning of the season. But who knows? Maybe this is it for K.K.

THAT explains it! What a jerk doctor, I hope he never works in the league again.
