Fiala Stretchered Off, Out of Olympics After Wilson Tangle
Kevin Fiala, the Kings' slick Swiss sniper, goes down hard late in Switzerland's rout by Canada when he gets tangled with Tom Wilson along the boards. Medics rush out, stretcher him off stomach-down, and the Swiss federation confirms he's done for the tournament with a lower-leg injury. Everyone from Wilson to Hischier and Meier insists it was just a freak Olympic collision with no malice, but Kings fans hold their breath on the long-term damage ahead of a crucial playoff push.
