Justin Faulk, one of the Canes’ best young stars, went down with a lower-body injury in the second period Tuesday.

Faulk did not return to the game and Canes coach Kirk Muller did not have an update on the injury after the game, but there were a lot of very somber looks in the locker room. Faulk has 10 points and a plus-3 in 28 games this season.
