Winnipeg Jets defenseman Tyler Myers will not play Game 4 against the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night, as he deals with a lower-body injury, the team announced.
Myers was a game-time decision after falling into the boards awkwardly following a collision with Wild forward Marcus Foligno in Game 3.
Prior to the injury, Myers had tallied two goals and three points in the first three games of the series.
With Myers out, rookie Tucker Poolman will make his NHL playoff debut. Poolman dressed in 24 games during the regular season, recording one goal, one assist, and 27 shots.
