Minnesota Wild defenceman Kurtis Foster had surgery Thursday to repair a broken left leg and will miss the remainder of this season, including the playoffs.
Foster had a rod inserted to repair a fractured left fibula and will spend at least two days recovering at O'Connor Hospital in San Jose, Calif., before returning home, team spokesman Aaron Sickman said.
The gruesome injury happened Wednesday night during the Wild's 4-3 shootout loss to the San Jose Sharks. Foster collided with Sharks rookie Torrey Mitchell and then crashed into the boards in the second period. He had to be carried off the ice on a stretcher.
As a result of the incident, Mitchell had a supplementary discipline hearing with the league.
