Je suis content de voir que ce n’était pas aussi grave que cela aurait pu l’être.
#NHLJets head coach Rick Bowness says Vladislav Namestnikov has a fractured cheek bone. He’ll travel back to Winnipeg today.
Bowness won’t rule him out. “He’s a tough kid.”

Broken fucking face but “not ruling him out” is a common mentality but never not impressive
Simply from a game perspective I hope he plays. Don’t want WPG changing anything rn
Wishing him a speedy recovery from a personal perspective
Glad to hear for sure. Was really worried he might have lost an eye. Scary situation
I figured for sure a broken orbital bone. To hear it’s only fractured is mind boggling.
I hope he plays. If nothing else, just to have another stat on why hockey players are tougher than other sports
I’d love to see him back on the ice. A personal victory over adversity, as well as proof of how tough hockey players are. It helps sell the sport, I think.
This is great news, given the alternatives. Hoping he has a switch recovery and can help his team ASAP
Man he’s a fuckin baller. Respect to him. Glad it wasn’t worse!
Pin this to the top mods!! I’m fucking glad he’s doing good!!
I’m glad to see it wasn’t as bad as it looked.
Glad its not more serious. Hope for a full and speedy recovery
Also shout out to the refs for calling the play dead. That’s the absolute right thing to do in these cases. Still upset about Calvert from 5 years back.
