Vegas Golden Knights fans get a harrowing update on Victor Olofsson

Vegas Golden Knights head coach Ryan Craig announced on Thursday that forward Victor Olofsson is week-to-week due to an injury. The Swedish winger was hurt during Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Seattle Kraken after being cross-checked into the boards by Seattle forward Ben Meyers in the third period. The hit caused Olofsson to miss the rest of the contest and sparked multiple on-ice altercations.

Prior to the injury, Olofsson had tallied four goals and one assist on the season, with two goals scored on the power play. The Golden Knights will now have to adjust their special teams and shooting options during his absence, as the team looks for other players to replicate his offensive output.
