Senators' Erik Karlsson (LBI) unavailable for matchup with Boston
Ottawa Senators defenseman Erik Karlsson has a lower-body injury and he won't play Thursday against the Boston Bruins.
Karlsson downplayed the injury Tuesday night after it occurred, but it sounds to be more severe than he let on. It's a big loss for a Senators team fighting for a playoff spot.
Karlsson has 54 assists and 71 points this season while recording a 50.1 Corsi For Percentage and 3.0 Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength.
