Sharks' top6 forward with a long-term injury.

After missing their last game against the Arizona Coyotes, the San Jose Sharks will play their next one without one of their best forward, Tomas Hertl. 

Hertl's injury happened when he collided with Jori Lehtera thursday night against the Saint-Louis Blues.

According to Kevin Kurz, it is an injury that could result in "weeks not days", Although  it's not official, it is believed to be a knee-injury, the same that kept him off the ice in the Stanley Cup Finals. 

Point production wise, Hertl was in a bit of a slump, notching only an assist in his last 7 games but still has 9 points in 17 games this year. He had his best season last year in goals (21), assists (25) and points (46).
