7d
Hosted on MSNMatthew Tkachuk, Charlie McAvoy out of 4 Nations vs. SwedenA lower-body injury will keep forward Matthew Tkachuk from playing for Team USA against Sweden in the 4 Nations Face-Off game Monday night in Boston. Tkachuk's absence will not impact the United States in the standings.
The Americans recognized the opportunity they lost at the 4 Nations Face-Off, but will be strong next year in Italy.
According to the Boston Globe, Charlie McAvoy was admitted to Mass. General Hospital due to injury from play in the 4 Nations Face-Off.
This little mid-season tournament proved to be something much greater, and the NHL must now deal with the ramifications.
McAvoy and Tkachuk did not participate in morning skate for Team USA, which already secured a spot in Thursday's TD Garden final vs. Canada, but Matthews was scratched close to puck drop. Brady Tkachuk was then lost for the night after a first-period collision.
