Head coach Sheldon Keefe provided an update on Jarnkrok's status post-game, mentioning that he'll "miss some time" due to the collision. However, Keefe couldn't provide a specific timeline for Jarnkrok's return as they are awaiting further evaluation once the team returns to Toronto.

This indicates that Jarnkrok might not be sidelined for an extended period, potentially returning before the playoffs.
Keefe emphasized the need for other players to step up in Jarnkrok's absence, similar to how the team rallied in the absence of Mitch Marner.
«Sheldon Keefe said it's not a shoulder or head injury for Calle Jarnkrok:
"Just like we've had others step up for Mitch, we'll have to do similar with Jarny if he's going to miss a period of time here"
