Panthers prospect Kosov sustains injuries in car accident

Details are as yet sparse, very but Florida Panthers 2011 draft pick Yaroslav Kosov was involved in what appears to have been a serious auto accident Friday evening or early Saturday. Roughly translated from Sport.ru:

Forward Magnitogorsk " Metallurgist "Yaroslav Kolosov tonight got in an accident. Returning to the city,18-year-old forward, at speeds of 120km/h [about 75 mph] crashed into a "VAZ-2106". Kolosov was a closed head injury, severe concussion and a shift of vertebrae. The rehabilitation will take several months.

Not enough concrete info to draw any realistic conclusions other than this is a Vaz-2106. More to come as details emerge; our thoughts and prayers to he and his family.

I guess this is a pure example why you shouldn’t drive over the speed limit. My thoughts and prayers are with him and hope he has a fast recovery.

Terrible. Here’s hoping for the speediest of recoveries.

Thats not good, anyone think the excitement from that tourney he was supposed to be in got in his head?

I’m putting here for reflection later on in the season…. #14 Tomas [Fleischmann] is getting a 40G season. FLASH COUNT: 3G/3A
