The 24-year-old is a non-factor offensively, having tallied […]

Jesper Fast Won't Play On Tuesday

Carolina Hurricanes winger Jesper Fast (upper body) won't be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers. He was injured at the weekend against Toronto, and it's unclear when Fast can rejoin the action.
