It appears the professional hockey player who suffered a serious spinal injury during the women's game at this season's NHL's Winter Classic is expected to file a lawsuit against the NHL.

According to the New York Post, the NHL expects Denna Laing to sue the league, the New England Patriots, who own Gillette Stadium, as well as the National Women’s Hockey League and Canadian Women’s Hockey League.

Laing was injured when she fell into the boards during a game between the Boston Pride and Les Canadiennes on New Year's Eve.
