SAN JOSE -- Erik Karlsson won't play in the Sharks' games for the remainder of the week, coach Peter DeBoer said at the team's practice facility on Thursday.
"We're waiting on some test results and things like that," DeBoer said of the All-Star defenseman. "I think it is [his groin], but I don't have all the stuff yet."
Karlsson left in the second period of San Jose's 4-1 loss to the Boston Bruins on Tuesday. As he tried to defend Boston defenseman Charlie McAvoy, Karlsson fell awkwardly and headed to the Sharks' dressing room.
Pains me to watch & post this, but: Erik Karlsson might have just re-injured his groin.
