Blackhawks' Quenneville on Rozsival's lower-body injury: 'Doesn't look good'

Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Michal Rozsival left Game 4 against the Minnesota Wild on Thursday night after suffering an apparent - and rather gruesome - left ankle injury.

The 36-year-old fell awkwardly in the second period and had to be helped off the ice by his teammates, unable to put any weight on his left leg.

The team announced that Rozsival wouldn't return to the contest after suffering a lower-body injury.

After the game, which the Blackhawks won to advance to the Western Conference Final, head coach Joel Quenneville didn't offer much in terms of an update, only saying, "It doesn't look good."

"It sucks," added teammate Patrick Sharp.

The Blackhawks have been relying heavily on their top-four defensemen, and the loss of Rozsival would require a major adjustment from Coach Q.

Rozsival played 7:16 on Thursday night, all even-strength minutes, in nine shifts.
