We knew Ivan Provorov played through a shoulder injury in the Philadelphia Flyers' final playoff game, but now we know just how bad it was.

On Wednesday at the Flyers' dressing room clean-out, the young defenseman told reporters, including the Courier-Post's Dave Issac, that he lost feeling in his left arm by the third period of Sunday's 8-5 series-clinching win by the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Provorov added that he would have missed six-to-eight weeks if it had been the regular season, according to Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The 21-year-old went into the boards shoulder-first near the end of Game 5 on Friday night, and finished the Flyers' penultimate contest of the season with a game-high 30:07 of ice time.

He logged 20:31 in Game 6, and said in an emotional scrum afterward, "as long as my arm was attached to me, I was playing."

Provorov hasn't missed a game in his first two NHL seasons.
