Playing in the under 16 boys championship, Lopu�anová gets cranked with a blindside hit by Dominik Halaj, take a look:
Absolutely brutal blindside hit on Nela Lopu�anová.
Dominik Halaj received 2 min for charging.
Nela seems ok. She's out there in the 3rd. 👊 #U16BoysChampionship
Near the end of the second period Halaj came across the ice and sent Lopu�anová flying. He was given a 2 minute minor for charging on the play while Lopu�anová�s teammates came to her defence
She would return for the 3rd period before getting taken down again and seriously injuring her wrist less than 5 minutes into the period.
#ICYMI
Here's where the injury occurred.
After that blindside hit, I don't wanna say she was targeted this game, but it sure seemed like it to me.
After the game Lopu�anová was diagnosed with a fractured wrist and will miss the next 6 weeks.
In the last boys' match Nela Lopusanova suffered a fractured wrist. Treatment time 6 weeks.
Nela copes with it with a smile.
She's one heck of a player who doesn't let the fact that let an injury stop her from smiling.
