SALT LAKE CITY — Montreal Canadiens forward Emil Heineman will be sidelined for three to four weeks after he was involved in a pedestrian accident Monday afternoon in Utah.The team said Heineman suffered an"upper body" injury in the accident. Marcus Isaksson, the player's agent, told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet that Heineman hurt his wrist when he was struck by a car.
Detective Dalton Beebe said in an email the area was checked for the person who filed the report, and the pedestrian involved, but neither were located. The team identified the player as Heineman, who"did not show any signs of serious injuries and was being attended to by team doctors," Beebe wrote. The 23-year-old Heineman, in his rookie season with Montreal, has 10 goals and seven assists in 41 games.
