Knee Injuries In Ice Hockey.

With knee injuries being common within the ice hockey population, the Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) is the most often injured structure. The MCL is a critical passive stabilizing structure of the knee that is located on the inside of the knee and attaches at the femur and the tibia. An MCL injury often results due to excessive force to the outside of the knee resulting in a stretch of the MCL.
