Zach Hyman Injury Sidelines Him For At Least Two Weeks<\/h2>\n

Hyman sustained the injury in the second period of Toronto’s most recent game against the Vancouver Canucks.<\/p>\n

The sequence began when Hyman stole the puck off Antoine Roussel<\/a> at centre ice. Skating past the benches, the winger then attempted to deke it around Alexander Edler<\/a> in order to gain the zone. Although as Hyman swerved to avoid the defenceman, Edler stuck out a trailing leg that collided with his knee, causing the Leafs forward to collapse to the ice in severe pain.<\/p>\n
