Matthew Tkachuk out against Team Sweden

Matthew Tkachuk suffered a lower-body injury against Canada in Saturday's 4 Nations Face-off Tournament game, and he will not play Monday in the final round-robin game against Sweden at TD Garden in Boston.

Fantasy Impact

Tkachuk has been instrumental in Team USA's success at the 4 Nations, as the Americans have already qualified for the final Thursday. Tkachuk's status for the final is uncertain. Chris Kreider, a healthy scratch for the first two games for Team USA, draws into the lineup in place of the gritty Panthers forward. If Tkachuk is sidelined Thursday, then fantasy managers should be a little more concerned.
