Game #18 Review: Philadelphia Flyers 3 vs. Toronto Maple Leafs 2 (SO)

Your game in ten:

1. It’s the bigger talking point than the game itself, so here goes: We know it’s an ankle injury for Marner. The big question surrounds the nature of the likely sprain.

Not to be a doomsday guy — zero medical background here — but when the leg folds under the body in such a manner, you’re usually thinking it’s either a knee or a high-ankle sprain. The Blues just lost Alex Steen to a high-ankle sprain and it’s a four-week timeline before the ankle can even be re-evaluated. Timothy Liljegren suffered a high-ankle sprain down with the Marlies last season and missed two-and-a-half months.
