The Winnipeg rookie was accidentally cut by a teammate’s skate blade during practice. As quickly as the scene unfolded Jets players and staff rushed in to help Redmond as blood pooled onto the ice around him.
Redmond's injury will keep him out indefinitely. Media is reporting that Zach is "currently resting comfortably in recovery". This coming just over one week after Sen's defenceman Erik Karlsson's injury from a skate blade laceration to his Achilles tendon. Karlsson is expected to miss the remainder of the season.

All of our Achilles® products have the specific benefits of safety as well as comfort. Be proactive and not reactive!
