The Chicago Blackhawks announced the latest updates on a few different injuries yesterday, and it will impact tonight’s matchup against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Blackhawks will now be without Dylan Strome and Lucas Carlsson for a while.
Lucas Carlsson was placed on injured reserve and will be out of the lineup for at least a week. Carlsson has been great for the ‘Hawks on defense, and now the team will have to turn to some of their other defensemen that are a little more offensively minded – like Boqvist and Beaudin, to pick up the slack.
