C More’s disc specialist Pekka Saravo told a wild story about his own playing career during the second halftime of the Ilves-Pelicans match.

In the spring of 2016, Saravo received a wrist shot from Patrik Laine in the morning training on the cheekbone and had to miss that game.

However, Saravo returned to the ice in the Lukko playoff series, and Tapparak also went on from the playoff series.

Let’s keep going and there were a few bad days, Saravo noticed that all was not well.

Saravo had undergone imaging right after the hit, but the seriousness of the injury became clear only after his own phone call at Easter.

– The pains came back so badly that I wondered about it in the hall. It was Easter then, and the return of information from pictures was not what it normally is. It turned out that the cheekbone was broken and the eye socket was cracked.

Saravo was sidelined for a few weeks. However, during Huili, the desire to play became so great that it was necessary to get on the ice with an aquarium helmet.

Saravo recalled the conversation he had with the doctors on the broadcast. The topic was when he dares to return to the games.

– The eye socket is such that it shouldn’t crack any more. I remember the doctor’s last question was how many people did the disk come from. I said that in the morning training around ten and the game started at 6:30 p.m., that it would probably last.

– Afterwards, I realized that especially eye injuries and other injuries, which can become life-long handicaps, are not worth it.
