BREAKING: Unfortunate News Confirmed for Joe Pavelski

Joe Pavelski is the epitome of leadership. He's an incredible locker room presence, and despite being 38, he is great on the ice as well.

Unfortunately, after an insane hit from Matt Dumba, he will be missing serious time.

After missing Game 2 in Dallas, it has been announced that Joe Pavelski will not join the team in their trip to Minnesota.

Pavelski, who mans a spot on the first line with Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz, May very well be suffering from a concussion, as he hit the ice directly to the head.

He will hopefully return in game 6, but there is no guarantee.

We will keep this story updated as it develops.
