The announcement we all knew was coming was made official today in San Jose. Captain Logan Couture will be out for a number of weeks with a fractured ankle.
His leg was in a cast during the media scrum this morning.
The injury happened on Tuesday in St. Louis, during the second period of a 3-2 loss to the St. Louis Blues. Couture went hard into the boards while competing with Blues defender Vince Dunn for a puck. He immediately went down and clutched his leg.
This morning, Couture spoke to the media for the first time about the injury.
