Following the game, there was another update on Jarnkrok, which wasn't the best news. Per Keefe, Jarnkrok is going to miss some time. Not ideal, but the Leafs are pretty deep, thankfully.
The Swedish forward signed a four-year deal with the team this past off-season. In 24 games played, he's gathered five goals and four assists.
Despite this being an unfortunate injury that will likely have the Leafs down a forward for some time, it could be a good opportunity for Nick Robertson to have a larger opportunity in the lineup.
