Ducks defenceman Jamie Drysdale leaves game with injury, won't return (video)

During Friday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights, Anaheim Ducks defenceman Jamie Drysdale suffered what appears to be a shoulder injury and was forced to leave the game.

The injury occurred nearly half-way through the second period. Drysdale had the puck behind his own net and as he goes to fire it up the boards, he gets hit by Golden Knights forward William Carrier.

Shortly after, the Anaheim Ducks announced on Twitter that Drysdale will not return to tonight's game due to an upper-body injury.
