Report: Henrik Sedin playing through finger injury, wearing a splint
Some light has been shed on the apparent injury that Vancouver Canucks forward Henrik Sedin has been playing through as of late.
Lots of talk about Henrik's "hand" injury. More specifically, it's a finger. Was fitted with a splint earlier this week. #Canucks

Sedin has registered four points in his last three games, but did not take a single faceoff in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins; for the season, Sedin is averaging over 17 draws per game.
Vancouver's next game is Friday against the St. Louis Blues.
