Robin Lehner leaves Blackhawks practice with apparent injury two days before trip to Europe

Share

The Blackhawks got some good news on Tuesday when coach Jeremy Colliton revealed that top prospect Kirby Dach (concussion protocol) and forward John Quenneville (hip) are getting closer to practicing with the team. But they also found themselves holding their breath on another key player.

Robin Lehner left practice early with an apparent injury and it's unclear what happened. Corey Crawford and Collin Delia finished practice as the two goaltenders, and Colliton didn't have much of an update afterwards.

"I don't know," Colliton said. "Obviously, he did leave so it wasn't perfect but I haven't got an update yet. I don't think it's a serious thing but obviously serious enough that he had to leave."

The Blackhawks leave for Berlin on Thursday and they're expected to bring all three goaltenders with them, although this could change things depending on the severity of Lehner's injury. Colliton is likely to provide a more concrete update on Wednesday after morning skate.
