Athletes strain, sprain, pull, tear tendons all the time. We’re used to hearing about it, and probably never really consider the pain these injuries cause (unless you’ve actually experienced it, of course).
Habs’ Andrei Markov Out Four Months With Disgusting Sounding Injury
↵But when you read about the way in which Canadiens All-Star Andrei Markov destroyed a tendon last night, it suddenly sounds — and feels — much, much more painful:
↵↵Markov will be out for at least four months after slicing a tendon in his ankle.
↵The team said on Friday that Markov had surgery in a Toronto hospital. He was injured when Canadiens goaltender Carey Price caught the Russian with his skate during Montreal’s 4-3 overtime victory on Thursday night.
