Oilers' Hall Out For Season

((HT: NHL/FSOhio/hockeyfightsdotcom))

Edmonton Oilers rookie Taylor Hall will need 8 weeks to recover from what is being called a left high ankle sprain. The recovery time will head into May, and since the Oil are not going to the playoffs, Hall's year is done.

He was hurt Thursday against Columbus after falling awkwardly in a fight with Derek Dorsett...

Evidence below...
Legs aren't supposed to go that direction...


It was the first-career fight for Hall, who leads Edmonton in goals with 22, along with 20 assists. He is in the discussion for the NHL's rookie of the year award.

Hall's injury comes after Edmonton just traded Dustin Penner to Los Angeles on Trade Deadline Day and they lost Ales Hemsky to a shoulder injury.

Not the best timing...
