Jets Brenden Dillon to officially miss game five with brutal injury

During a brutal game four in Colorado that placed Winnipeg on the verge of elimination, star defenseman Brenden Dillon suffered a brutal cut on his hand that led to blood gushing immediately.

The injury looked horrendous on first viewing, and while he's likely not out to be long term, it's not looking good for the near future. Now, the team have officially revealed that he will miss a crucial game five at home as the team look to save themselves from elimination.

The Avalanche have all the momentum heading into game five, and the loss of Dillon makes things even tougher, so we will see how the Jets can rebound with their backs against the wall.
