This seems wildly improbable. White-tailed deer females average around 150 lbs. which is just about ST 11 in the standard rules. Realistically, the strength difference between humans and other animals is enough that the deer might be able to exert more force than almost all humans in certain contexts, but that is far from sufficient to win a fight. A human with virtually any melee weapon can easily inflict lethal wounds on a deer (rather delicate creatures; they often die in road accidents a human would walk away from) and although a kick from a deer is dangerous, it is far from sure death for a healthy man. Give the human armour as well as a weapon and it's laughable to suggest the deer would be a credible threat.
This assumes a deer panicking and flailing around in an attempt to flee, which is normal behaviour for a cornered deer. I don't think that a weirdly combative deer would actually change things very much though.
