Chilling scene in New York: Kaapo Kakko's leg bent in the wrong direction

During a puck battle in the corner, Kaapo Kakko's skate appeared to get caught in the boards, causing his leg to bend in an unnatural way.

No malicious act was committed; it can be described as pure bad luck, and Kakko landed awkwardly.

Hopefully, it's not too serious for him, but judging by his reaction when he grabbed his knee after the impact, it seemed extremely painful.
