DENVER -- Brayden McNabb left with an undisclosed injury in the first period for the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 2 of the Western Conference Final at Ball Arena on Friday.
The defenseman missed the final 6:20 of the first after laying a partial hit on Colorado Avalanche defenseman Sam Malinski just inside the blue line. He did not return for the second period.
McNabb, who plays on Vegas' top defense pair with Shea Theodore, has three points (one goal, two assists) and is plus-6 in 12 games this postseason. He was second on the Golden Knights in ice time (25:42) in a 4-2 win against the Avalanche in Game 1 on Wednesday.
Game 3 of the best-of-7 series will be at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday (8 p.m. ET; ESPN, SN, TVAS, CBC).
