Zucker blocked a shot with 6:54 remaining in the period:
Zucker was helped from the bench to the locker room at the next stoppage, not putting any weight on his right leg.
Brandon Tanev was moved to Evgeni Malkin's line in Zucker's absence for the remainder of the period.
Zucker was felled by a block shot earlier in the period and was in clear pain, but skated to the bench on his own and later returned to the game.
