Hockey Betting Lines
07/23/2010 - Vancouver, BC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Vancouver Canucks defenseman Sami Salo is out indefinitely after suffering a torn Achilles tendon.
The Vancouver Sun reported on Friday that Salo was injured in his native Finland while playing a version of hockey called floorball, something which Salo has done every off-season of his professional career.
The 35-year-old blueliner played in 68 games last season, tallying nine goals with 28 points, adding a goal and five assists in 12 playoff appearances.
Since breaking into the NHL with Ottawa in 1998, Salo, who once boasted one of the hardest shots in the league, has compiled 81 goals and 273 points in 665 games. He's also contributed nine goals and 26 points in 74 postseason tilts.
