This came as a sigh of relief for Avalanche fans considering that the playoffs is right around the corner, and losing two key players like this could have changed the entire outcome of the playoffs for the Avalanche.
Necas looked like he suffered a very serious injury against the Blackhawks after he was diving to break up a play and ran into the back of a Blackhawks player, awkwardly snapping his next.
Here is a look at the play:
Jonathan Drouin took an awkward hit along the boards early in the game from a Blackhawks player, and the contact looked to hit him in his knee/lower thigh area.
Drouin would end up leaving the game, after only just seven shifts, and would not return to the game.
