Toronto Maple Leafs right wing Colby Armstrong will be sidelined indefinitely with a concussion.
Armstrong was hurt in Saturday's game against Vancouver, but didn't reveal the injury to team doctors until Monday afternoon.
Toronto coach Ron Wilson said learning of the injury took the team by "complete shock" because Armstrong hid it from the medical staff.
According to Wilson, Armstrong revealed that he was feeling nauseous and had blurry vision.
Armstrong has appeared in only nine games this season, registering one assist. He was sidelined for seven weeks after suffering an sprained ankle in a game on Oct. 19.
