Winnipeg Jets defenseman Dustin Byfuglien will miss two to four weeks with an upper-body injury, as confirmed by head coach Paul Maurice after practice Friday.
Byfuglien suffered the injury in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Ottawa Senators.
The veteran - with 42 points in 65 games - has alternated between the blue line and the forward position due to team injuries, including the loss of winger Mathieu Perreault.
