Jake Muzzin Out Four Weeks With Broken Hand
5 years agoToronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake Muzzin will be sidelined for the next four weeks due to a broken left hand. The 31-year-old sustained the injury in the second period of his team's 4-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday after blocking a shot from defenseman Victor Hedman. Muzzin buried a goal in the first period of the contest, extending his personal point streak to six games (three goals, five assists) before having to depart due to the injury. This news likely ends Muzzin's season in most fantasy formats but there is a possibility he could return to action a few days early. As a result, it might be wise for fantasy owners to stash the Ontario native on an open injured reserve spot just in case.
