Mattias Janmark (undisclosed) is expected to be out for Game 2 and likely the entire first round.

Janmark played 14:52 TOI in Game 1, picking up an assist, two SOG and a +1 plus/minus but is now expected to be out for Game 2 after blocking a shot last game and limping off the ice. The 30-year-old is considered day-to-day for the time being after having a solid 2022-23 regular season where he picked up 10 goals, 25 points and +9 plus/minus through 66 games.

Janmark will miss his second straight game on Tuesday but it sounds like he could miss even more time. Head coach Pete DeBoer said that Janmark "is not close to returning," which suggests he could miss the rest of the week at the very least.
