Fantasy Impact:

It's another significant blow for the Capitals who will also be without forward T.J. Oshie for the time being, also due to a lower-body injury. Carlson is off to a typically nice start to the season with two goals and six points across nine games while averaging three shots per game. Matt Irwin will make his season debut in Carlson's place.
