EDGE Analysis

Josefson reportedly has experienced swelling after getting hit in the hand by a shot last Friday, resulting in apparent issues with the x-ray examination process. The 25-year-old forward only has 13 points in 54 games this season, but 10 of those tallies have taken place on the man advantage.
