Reign: Chavira out two weeks with ‘lower-body injury’

The word on Itan Chavira is a lower-body injury, sustained in the second period of Friday night’s 7-6 loss in Alaska. Chavira said he will be out of action for two weeks. No more specifics on the exact locale of the ailment, though it’s not an area that has bothered Chavira before. The Phillips Ranch resident isn’t eligible to play until the 30 days are up — so basically, March — but expects to be fully healthy by then.
