Duclair sustained an apparent leg injury in Saturday's game versus the Canadiens, and there was no update on his status from head coach Patrick Roy after the game, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Duclair suffered the injury in the third period and was unable to return to the game. He didn't put any weight on his right leg while receiving assistance to get off the ice. The 29-year-old winger has earned three points through five appearances in a top-line role with the Islanders, so his absence would be a significant one if he's forced to miss time. The Islanders' next clash is Tuesday versus the Red Wings.
