Injuries are an unfortunate part of hockey and they could derail someone’s career immediately if it becomes habitual. Hopefully, that will not be the case with left winger Nicholas Robertson and his contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Make no mistake about it, before he was hurt and playing in the AHL with the Toronto Marlies, Robertson was showcasing his skills to the hockey world and making his case for being one of the top prospects in the entire organization.
Unfortunately, he got hit with a severe shoulder injury back in mid-January that required surgery as it remains to be seen if he’ll be the same player in the future.
