Adam Johnson death: Team-mate Victor Bjorkung still gets 'flashbacks'

"I think about it every day, more or less. I get a lot of flashbacks, and they're not very pleasant."
Victor Bjorkung had just played a pass to his Nottingham Panthers team-mate Adam Johnson when he saw tragedy unfold on the ice.
On 28 October last year, during a match against the Sheffield Steelers, Johnson’s neck was cut by a blade and he died later in hospital.
What happened to American Johnson was a big enough wake-up call to Bjorkung of the dangers of ice hockey.
And yet he was to have his own potentially catastrophic injury from a blade just a few months later.
It struck his groin area, and cut through his protective gear and skin "like butter".
