Utah Mammoth defenseman Mikhail Sergachev leaves Tuesday night’s game against the New Jersey Devils after being struck on the back of his helmet by a puck. He is hit during play following a teammate’s clearing attempt.
According to reports, the incident occurs late in the second period when Sergachev is struck by a puck from the clearing attempt by teammate MacKenzie Weegar. After going to the bench, Sergachev goes directly down the tunnel to the locker room. The accounts describe the sequence of events similarly, focusing on the impact location and his quick exit from the ice.
Both outlets provide the same core details of the hit and his immediate departure. Neither source includes additional information about the severity of the injury or his status beyond leaving the game.
