Coming off of a much needed win Sunday night, the Anaheim Ducks received some terrible news early Monday morning. Defensemen Cam Fowler will miss some time as he has been placed on injured reserve after suffering a sprained knee in the win against the Flyers.
The injury to Fowler occurred early on in the game as a Claude Giroux slash appeared to stumble the Ducks defensemen. It was a heated game and pleasantries were exchanged throughout but the Ducks will now be without one of their best defensemen for the foreseeable future.
An MRI will give more detail to the extent of Fowlers injury, but it appears that he and the Ducks medical staff knew right away that it was not good.
