Colorado Avalanche coach Jared Bednar expressed his frustration regarding the lack of a whistle when goaltender Scott Wedgewood was injured during a recent game. Wedgewood suffered a right leg injury after a collision involving Buffalo Sabres forward Zach Benson. Despite the injury, play continued, allowing the Sabres to score while Wedgewood remained down.
Bednar had a discussion with league officials about the incident, acknowledging differing opinions but seeking clarity. He emphasized that the whistle should have been blown to protect the goalie, similar to how it would be for other players. Wedgewood's injury leaves the Avalanche with concerns about his status, as they await test results.
