Toronto announces Jack Campbell will miss time with upper-body injury

The Toronto Maple Leafs announced on Thursday that goaltender Jack Campbell will miss at least two weeks with a rib injury.

In a corresponding move, the Maple Leafs have called up goaltender Erik Kallgren from the Toronto Marlies on an emergency basis.

Jack Campbell's injury will likely now force General Manager Kyle Dubas to go out and try to acquire goaltending help. Some of the names he could have his eyes on include, Marc-Andre Fleury (Chicago), Semyon Varlamov (New York Islanders), or possibly Braden Holtby (Dallas).

Campbell, 30, has appeared in 40 games this season with the Maple Leafs, putting up a record of 24-9-4 with a 2.65 GAA, a .914 save percentage and four shutouts.
