Buffalo Sabres defenseman Christian Ehrhoff sustained an upper body injury during his first-period fight with Troy Brouwer of the Washington Capitals.
"He's going to miss some time," Sabres coach Lindy Ruff told the Buffalo News on Friday. "It'll probably be weeks."
Signed to a 10-year, $40 million deal in the offseason, Ehrhoff has collected three goals, 14 assists and 28 penalty minutes this campaign.
The 29-year-old Ehrhoff is yet another one of the Sabres who has been sidelined with various injuries. He joins fellow blue-liner Tyler Myers and forward Ville Leino - among many others - on the shelf for Buffalo.
