“He wasn’t concussed or anything – I guess, sprained his neck. He’s going to go see the docs and if we need to call someone up we will.”
In his last appearance Fasth allowed five goals on 16 shots and was pulled seven minutes into the second period of the Oilers’ 8-1 loss to the Flames Saturday night.
The Oilers are home to the Pacific Division leader San Jose Sharks Tuesday night. Game time is 7:30 p.m. MST.
