The Golden Knights have added William Carrier (lower-body) to LTIR.

Carrier has been sidelined since March 30th by a lower-body injury and was one of three players added to LTIR on Tuesday to make room for Mark Stone to be activated for their game in Vancouver. As a result, Carrier will likely be out until the playoffs or more cap gymnastics will be required.
