Today at practice the versatile forward wasn’t on the ice.
In the Matt Frost Media Centre after practice head coach Rick Bowness provided an update.
“Lower-body. Won’t play tomorrow. Probably won’t play Monday. I’d say a couple of days and we’ll go from there.”
Looks like David Gustafsson comes back into the lineup.
