Tampa Bay Lightning forward J.T. Brown is out indefinitely after suffering an upper-body injury in Game 2 against the Detroit Red Wings, the team announced Saturday.

Brown exited Friday's game in the first period after blocking a shot, and didn't return.

The 25-year-old was playing on Tampa Bay's third line with Cedric Paquette and Ryan Callahan, and there's been no update on the specific nature of the injury, or who could replace him in the lineup.

Brown scored 22 points in 78 games this season.
