Report: Sharks' Couture suffers lower-body injury at practice

The San Jose Sharks are keeping their fingers crossed.

Forward Logan Couture had to be helped off the ice by teammates Brent Burns and Brenden Dillon after reportedly suffering a lower-body injury near the end of practice Thursday, according to Kevin Kurz of CSNBayArea.com.

Couture reportedly went down while participating in a 5-on-5 drill.

Sharks general manager Doug Wilson said the 26-year-old is currently being evaluated.

Couture was seen leaving the Prudential Center in a boot and crutches.

The Sharks are in New Jersey where they'll face the Devils on Friday.
