Buffalo Sabres defenseman Josh Gorges will be out of the lineup for the long term.
He's out "weeks" with a non-displaced fracture in his foot, head coach Dan Bylsma told reporters Sunday.
Gorges was hurt blocking a shot in Thursday's win over the New York Rangers, and missed Saturday's loss to the Boston Bruins.
The veteran ranks fifth on the Sabres in average time on ice, and has just a single point in 23 games.
