Tyler Seguin's injury situation appears more dire than first believed.
The Dallas Stars center, who was forced out of the World Cup with what was said at the time to be an ankle injury, has been diagnosed with a hairline fracture in his heel, general manager Jim Nill announced Saturday.
The injury occurred during Canada's pre-tournament game against the United States on Sept. 9 and was revealed following an MRI.
Seguin's status for training camp will be re-evaluated in one week, Nill adds.
