The Fargo Force will play the deciding Game Five of the United States Hockey League's Clark Cup finals in Green Bay on Wednesday night after losing 5-3 in Game Four Saturday night at home. In addition to losing the game, they lost team captain and future Maverick Chase Grant to a knee injury.
Grant's injury will put him on the sidelines for the remainder of the series. MSU recruit Corey Leivermann is still out as well, recovering from a concussion suffered in Fargo's playoff match-up against the Omaha Lancers.
At this time, it's unknown how serious the injury to Grant's knee is. Heath Hotzler of Fargo-Moorheads INFORUM quoted Grant stating, “It was just an awkward hit on the knee. It’s pretty sore right now. I can’t put any weight on it. … They think it’s a torn meniscus. I’m hopeful.”
I will post updates as they become available.
Update: Grant's injury is now being labeled a compression fracture to his right leg.
