Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury has been placed on injured reserve with a concussion, the team announced Sunday.

He did not practice Saturday, and there's no timetable for his return. Fleury previously suffered a concussion in 2016, forcing him to miss the final month of the season and most of the playoffs.
Malcolm Subban stands to start Sunday against his old team from Boston, while Maxim Lagace has been recalled from the AHL.
Vegas concurrently announced Jonathan Marchessault has been placed on IR with a lower-body injury, prompting a recall of Alex Tuch.
