Erik Johnson, St. Louis Blues defenseman, reportedly injured his knee - on a golf cart. Johnson slammed his foot between the accelerator and brake petal while trying to stop the cart, and started feeling pain in his right knee. Regardless of the pain, he continued with his golf game, only to notice the swollen knee later that night. It was worse the next day, so the D-man got an MRI exam, which proved to be inconclusive. We can expect a follow up MRI exam on either Saturday or Sunday.
He’s going to miss the first three days of training camp. Geez. I always find it ironic when a hockey player gets an injury during golf…
