I think the reaction was the killer. Falls to the ice screaming in agony, hands over his head, banging his hands on the ice. That's the reaction you see from football players when someone rolls up on their knee and it subsequently explodes.
(Not saying that's what happened. Just, the reaction was hard to watch.)

i liked the original pull it, twist it, flick it version of the bop-it toy a lot better than this version

Sometimes these things look worse than they are. I remember McDonagh wiping out after scoring on the caps (?) back in 2012 and having to be helped off the ice in what looked like a season ending non contact injury. He missed like 2 shifts.
The reaction doesn't give me much concern. The way he had to be helped off the ice and couldn't move after being taken to the bench is no bueno. It's almost for certain a serious injury.

Oh it’s dripping with dramatics.
I’m just trying to lower my expectations to zero, because holy hell what a weird series of events this season

Gave me flashbacks to Richter's second ACL tear, in that game against Chicago in 2001. Walking off the ice, Ramsay holding him up...gosh.

I am sure that will comfort him, when he wakes up from his backiatomy.

Yeah but that’s also the reaction you see from soccer players when someone breathes on them, so hopefully it’s somewhere in between.
But Richter jammed his leg into the post going side to side. Just dont see it as severe as that
. Hopefully. I do remember I got a terrible Charlie horse that lasted for several minutes and couldn’t put any weight on it for a while.

I’m no doctor, but worried about a serious hip injury from the second view

Could be his back. If you’ve ever pinched a nerve in your back, it’s awful. Pain radiating from the groin to the leg, no idea where it’s coming from.
the hip is the one that scares me. Not ideal at all for a goalie. Knees can be repaired easily. Hips not so much

Doubtful to be a back, but technically isnt lower back still lower body?

Who knows, maybe he thrives when given the opportunity to start regularly. His issue is often his consistency, so maybe regular starts will help? Who knows. Either way, it's not like he's an AHL-caliber guy, he has legitimate talent, so hopefully he can put it together.

Season is definitely over for him. Definitely looked like he tore something 
just have to pray it doesnt linger for his whole career.

Honestly, with all that gear, in an active game where he faced 33 and was busy, it’s possible to catch a Charlie horse or something from a big lunge like that and have a dead leg for a good 15 minutes or so. Unlikely, but trying to be positive.
It was against the Bruins!
I actually missed that game but everyone was freaking out about that injury on here.
