Vegas Golden Knights forward William Karlsson is expected to miss Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Carolina Hurricanes after sustaining an injury in Game 5. Multiple reports say Karlsson leaves Game 5 during the second period and does not return. The injury details are not fully specified in the coverage, though one account indicates it appears to involve his left wrist, arm, or shoulder. Golden Knights coach John Tortorella confirms Karlsson will not play in Game 6, and he does not provide further information on the nature of the injury. Other outlets also describe Karlsson’s status for the remainder of the series as uncertain, with one report suggesting he is likely not going to be with the team after the Game 5 injury. With Karlsson unavailable, Vegas will have to adjust its lineup for the next game while the Hurricanes hold a 3–2 series lead heading into Game 6.
