In a shocking revelation that has sent shockwaves through the NHL playoffs, Sportsnet's Jason Gregor has reported that the Edmonton Oilers will be without the services of one of their key forwards for the entire Round 1 series against the Los Angeles Kings.
According to Gregor, the player in question is Mattias Janmark, who is expected to miss the series due to an injury sustained while blocking a shot in the previous game. Janmark has been a crucial contributor to the Oilers' penalty kill this season, and his absence will undoubtedly be a massive setback for the team.
The Oilers will now have to regroup quickly and find a way to fill the void left by Janmark's absence. It remains to be seen who will step up to the challenge, but the Oilers will need to rally together and overcome this adversity if they hope to advance past the Kings in the playoffs.
