John Klingberg will be missing out on the global series games today and he has now revealed a new detail.

Klingberg Reveals Major Detail

It was confirmed yesterday that Leafs defenseman John Klingberg would be missing out on todays game in his home nation, Sweden.

Today Klingberg confirmed some major news regarding his injury.

John Klingberg says the ailment that is bothering him is something he's dealt with in his career. He's feeling better but not good enough to play tonight.

Confirming he has dealt with this before is both encouraging and worrying at the same time. It is encouraging in the sense that Klingberg will be able to know how to treat the injury rather easily. However it is worrying because it could be something that prevents him from showing off the full extent of his abilities with Toronto.

Hopefully Klingberg is able to recover completely and will be able to go back to providing an offensive kick to the Leafs' blue line.
