Daily Nuggets: Injury Bug Hits Golden Knights, Crosby, Jagr Still Going Strong

Good morning; I smashed my finger in my apartment door today, so we're already off to a great start.

The Vegas Golden Knights are currently being dealt a much worse fate than a stubbed finger. Their top player is out with a lower-body injury, as well as three of their defensemen.

Elsewhere around the league, Sidney Crosby is still tugging along at 35 years of age, and Jaromir Jagr at age 50.
