Craig Berube Delivers Sobering Update on Leafs Forward Steven Lorentz's Condition
Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube was asked about Steven Lorentz on Saturday night, and the answer wasn't exactly inspiring confidence.
Last night, Steven Lorentz was on the wrong end of a headshot from Detroit Red Wings star Ben Chiarot, and it knocked him out of the game.
From the second period onward, the Maple Leafs could not get anything going, and they ended up losing 6-3, showcasing just how important Lorentz truly is.
After the game, head coach Craig Berube was asked about the injury to Lorentz, and as you will read, the answer wasn't great.
While Anthony Stolarz saw the forward walking around, the Leafs currently can't give any details on what ails the forward.
No update from Craig Berube on severity of Steven Lorentz's upper-body injury. Will be evaluated further in Toronto.
Anthony Stolarz says he saw Lorentz walking around the room postgame.

If you are a fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs, you can't help but be worried for the forward, as it feels like this could become a concussion situation.
Who will replace Steven Lorentz on the Toronto Maple Leafs?
There are a few forwards waiting in the wings to take Lorentz's place right now. You have Sammy Blais and Easton Cowan.
Of course, the fans want to see Easton Cowan in the lineup, as he is the rookie who has yet to make his debut in the National Hockey League.
Regardless, we can't help but think about Lorentz right now, who is a glue guy of the fourth line and brings amazing energy to the team.
Only time will tell whether or not Lorentz gets good news, or bad news as the week goes on.
