Well, this has gone from bad to worse for the Vegas Golden Knights. First off, the team placed Erik Haula on injured reserve with a lower-body injury after the low hit from Tomas Tatar on Friday night. And as if the third-period disaster was bad enough, the NHL’s newest franchise got terrible news Sunday morning.
The Vegas Golden Knights announced they placed Marc-Andre Fleury and Jonathan Marchessault on IR. Losing your number one goaltender and one of the top offensive weapons is not an ideal situation. Fleury took a hard hit to the head in the crease on Friday night versus the Red Wings and was diagnosed with a concussion.
