U.S. hockey player Brady Tkachuk suffered a lower-body injury during Monday’s 2-1 loss to Sweden at the TD Garden. The injury occurred when Tkachuk lost his edge and crashed into Swedish goalie Samuel Ersson, dislodging the net. He took several shifts before being ruled out for the rest of the first period. U.S. coach Mike Sullivan said Tkachuk was held out due to precautionary reasons, but does not expect the injury to be a serious issue. The cause of the injury and its potential impact on Tkachuk’s recovery are currently unknown.
