SALT LAKE CITY — The extent of Utah Mammoth star Logan Cooley's injury is coming into focus as the team announced Thursday that the forward is expected to miss at least 8 weeks of action due to his lower-body injury.
Mammoth General Manager Bill Armstrong shared the disappointing news in a social media post, but didn't detail specifics about Cooley's injury.
Cooley crashed into the post during a game against the Vancouver Canucks on Friday. The forward’s left leg appeared to bend in the wrong direction in the process.
It was the second time in a matter of days that Cooley suffered a blow to the same leg. He had to be helped off the ice on Nov. 29 when he was kneed by St. Louis forward Alexey Toropchenko.
