UNIONDALE, N.Y. — Washington Capitals coach Barry Trotz said Monday that third-line center Eric Fehr will miss at least the next two playoff games after taking a stiff hit into the boards in the 2-1 overtime loss to the New York Islanders.
Fehr was skating from the end boards into the corner in an attempt to play a loose puck when he was hit by Islanders right wing Kyle Okposo at 3:11 of the first period. Okposo hit Fehr with the right side of his body, crunching Fehr’s right shoulder against the glass.
