Zach Hyman suffers broken nose but returns to play for Oilers after injury
Edmonton Oilers forward Zach Hyman suffered a broken nose and two black eyes after being hit by a deflected slap shot during a game against the Florida Panthers. He returned to play in the third period wearing a full face shield. Hyman expressed relief that his injuries were not worse, noting he could have faced a longer recovery if the puck had damaged his orbital bone or jaw. He has experienced broken noses before, but this incident was among the more severe. In roster news, Viktor Arvidsson is set to return after missing 15 games due to injury. He will play on the third line, while Mattias Janmark will center the fourth line.
