Malcolm Subban’s mysterious upper-body injury could sideline the Golden Knights backup goaltender for the remainder of the homestand.
Coach Gerard Gallant said Subban is “week to week,” as he was placed on the injured-reserve list Monday after practice, according to the roster on the Knights official website.
“He’s definitely not playing this week,” Gallant said. “After that I’ll know more.”
Gallant told reporters on Saturday that Subban was injured during “the morning skate” on the team’s most recent road trip, presumably Thursday at San Jose.
But Subban dressed and was listed as the backup for that game, leading to speculation he was injured following the 5-3 victory over the Sharks or during the Knights’ off day on Friday.
