Neuvirth exited Tuesday's game against the Sharks following the first period with a lower-body injury, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports. It's unclear how Neuvirth sustained the injury, as he remained in the crease for the first 20 minutes before inexplicably not returning for the start of the second period. Coach Ted Nolan should offer more insight into Neuvirth's condition during his post-game press conference. The game was tied 0-0 at the time of Neuvirth's departure, so Tuesday's decision will ultimately go to his replacement, Jhonas Enroth.
