Lundkvist suffered a lower-body injury Thursday versus Vancouver, Brien Rea of FanDuel Sports Network Southwest reports.

Lundkvist will be looked at by the medical staff Friday after he played only 11:18 of ice time, and the defenseman may be questionable for Saturday's contest in St. Louis. The 25-year-old got off to a great start with a goal and two assists in his first two games of 2025-26, but he was held off the scoresheet in his last two appearances. Ilya Lyubushkin should enter the lineup if Lundkvist is unable to go.
