Kiiskinen was injured in the match against Jukurei.
Captain of the ice hockey league KalPa Tuomas Kiiskinen is sidelined due to an injury until the turn of the year, the Kuopio club announced on its website. Last week, Kiiskinen had Jukurien Niklas Peltomäki to tackle.
The situation progressed to the consideration of the League’s disciplinary delegation, but no punishment was imposed on Peltomäki.
Kiiskinen, 37, has scored two goals in the six league games he has played this season.
In addition to Kiiskinen, KalPa has a defender on the sidelines due to injuries Ville Ruotsalainen and the attacker Sakke Vallius. The Swede’s situation is monitored day by day and Vallius is estimated to return to the ice at the turn of November-December.
