Jani Hakanpaa Out For "The Near Future"
8 months agoDallas Stars defenseman Jani Hakanpaa (lower body) is set to miss "the near future" after sustaining a lower-body injury in a 4-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings on March 16. "He's shut down for the near future here," head coach Peter DeBoer said. "He's having some tests done and things like that, so we'll see where that goes. But I don't see him having any availability in the immediate future." The 31-year-old has two goals and 12 points across 64 games on the season while adding a plus-10 rating. He is known for his physical style of play, and his 196 hits rank 14th in the NHL while he has added 123 blocked shots as part of his 18:39 average ice time per game.
