Tristan Jarry spoke about his status after leaving last week’s game early with an injury.
On why he left following the first period of the game on March 29: "I think it was just more precautionary than anything. They didn't want it to get any worse. It was the right time and moment to do it. It was something the staff decided and I was okay with it." https://t.co/8on2lOnVxQ
