Report: Oilers' Klefbom suffers fractured finger
Anne-Marie Sorvin / USA TODAY Sports
The Edmonton Oilers' rousing victory over the New York Rangers may have come at a cost.
Oscar Klefbom suffered an injury and was unable to return to the game. And while Oilers coach Todd McLellan tempered concern suggesting he would only miss a few days, the latest news indicates he's likely to miss more time.
Oscar Klefbom. Fractured finger. Won't be on Oilers' Eastern road trip.
