Hamonic out 4-6 weeks with upper-body injury
by from on (#20KMB)
Troubles continue to mount in Brooklyn.
The New York Islanders will now be without defenseman Travis Hamonic for the next four-to-six weeks with an upper-body injury, the team announced Sunday.
Hamonic, who leads the Islanders in average ice time per contest over the last two seasons, was injured in the first period of Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Edmonton Oilers.
New York will have to file some paperwork to dress a complete roster Monday night versus the Vancouver Canucks, as the club has only been carrying six healthy defensemen.
