Florida Panthers defenceman Aaron Ekblad was removed from the game tonight with a left leg injury in the game against the Dallas Stars. His knee BUCKLED while falling and he had to be splinted and boarded to be removed off the ice due to extreme pain and the inability to weight bear.

In this video I discuss a brief overview of potential injuries Aaron might face given his mechanism of injury. With a collapsing in of the knee as we witnessed in the video we would be worried about the following injures:
- Extra-articular ligaments - MCL and LCL
- Intra-articular ligaments - ACL and PCL
- Fractures
- Medial and lateral meniscus
- Patellar dislocation

The differential is always kept quite broad especially when we see an injury such as this one. Given the amount of pain he was in, and the limited visibility of the limb, the team acted to stabilize the leg treating it as a potential fracture until a more thorough assessment can be completed in the locker room/ER.

I will update in the comments once we get more information about his condition. He will likely be out for the foreseeable future.
