Jeff Carter Sustains A Lower-Body Injury
3 years agoPittsburgh Penguins forward Jeff Carter sustained a lower-body injury and couldn't make it to the end in Thursday's 4-0 win over Boston. He exited in the third period after logging 13:34 of action. Carter had a nice game before being forced off, tallying his 48th point of the season via an assist and recording a plus-two rating. It's currently unclear how serious the injury is. However, the good news is that Evgeni Malkin's four-game suspension ended on Thursday and can reclaim his spot on the second line, which Carter had been filling. Fantasy managers should make sure that the Russian is back in their lineup for a juicy back-to-back set against Detroit and Philadelphia over the weekend.
