by from on (#27G6W)
Carolina Hurricanes netminder Eddie Lack has been diagnosed with a concussion, the team announced Tuesday.
The 28-year-old missed Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning with what the team called an illness, leaving equipment manager Jorge Alves to serve as Cam Ward's backup.
For Lack, this marks the second time this season he has been diagnosed with a concussion. He was placed on the injured reserve with his first on Nov. 10 and was not activated until Dec. 21.
In wake of the news, the Hurricanes have recalled goaltender Daniel Altshuller from the Charlotte Checkers of the American Hockey League.
