Laich suffered an upper-body injury in Friday's loss to the Stars and was absent from Saturday's practice, Alex Prewitt of the Washington Post reports. Laich has generally held up well on the health front this season compared to the previous two years, but he's still dealt with upper-body injuries on multiple occasions already in 2014-15. The Capitals are considering Laich day-to-day for the moment, but it wouldn't be a surprise if he were forced to miss both games of the Caps' back-to-back set that commences Sunday against the Capitals.
