Artturi Lehkonen Faces Multi-Week Absence
1 year agoColorado Avalanche left wing Artturi Lehkonen (upper body) won't play Saturday against St. Louis and has been ruled out for "weeks" by head coach Jared Bednar. Lehkonen had to exit Thursday's game against Seattle early after hitting his head on the glass. However, Bednar has said it's not a head injury, which is good news, but Colorado still has to play multiple games without him. Lehkonen has totaled eight points (three goals, five assists) in 12 games this season. Valeri Nichushkin will replace Lehkonen on the first line on Saturday.
