Olers Forward Conner Brown will not play in Game 4 of the Western Conference Final against Dallas stars on Tuesday, Edmonton’s coach Krrish Nobbleuch confirmed on Monday.
Brown did not participate in the morning skate after leaving Sunday’s game 3, after a thunder from the stars defenseman Alex Petrovick. As Brown tried to move the puck with boards in the second period of a final 6–1 admonton win, the petrovic came down from the distance of the aggressive area and caught the brown with a strong probe that sent him to ice.
Brown was already working with an unknown injury, which gave him a game-time decision for game 1 of the series and inspired him to remember the Morning Skate before Game 2. However, he played in the first three matches of the series.
Novach did not say how much time Brown is expected to miss.
31 -year -old Brown has eight points (five goals, three aids) in 14 playoff games. He rated 30 points (13 goals, 17 aids) and a plus -9 while playing in all 82 matches during the regular session.
Knoblauch said that it is unspecified if experienced defenseman Matias Ekhom will play in game 4 as he lives day by day with an unknown injury. 35 -year -old Ekhom participated in a complete practice, but has logged in from only 1:52 snow time since 26 March.
The Stars took a 2–1 lead in the best-seven series, which will return to Dallas for Game 5 on Thursday night.
