Max Pacioretty Misses Saturday's Contest
2 years agoCarolina Hurricanes left wing Max Pacioretty (lower body) will miss Saturday's matchup against Pittsburgh and is also doubtful to play Sunday versus Vancouver. He suffered a lower-body injury early into Thursday's game against Columbus and needs some time to heal. Luckily, the injury isn't related to Pacioretty's Achilles problem that forced him to miss the start of the season and it is not believed to be a serious issue. Pacioretty was able to skate in just four games before suffering a fresh injury blow. He picked up three goals with 13 shots and had four hits. Teuvo Teravainen moved to Pacioretty's spot on the first line Saturday.
