James Neal is expected to miss at least another seven days, according to his general manager.
The Calgary Flames forward is week-to-week with what the club is calling a lower-body injury, GM Brad Treliving told reporters, including Sportsnet's Eric Francis, on Wednesday.
Neal missed Calgary's last two games after getting hurt in Thursday's loss to the Florida Panthers.
The veteran winger has managed only five goals and 15 points in 55 games this season, but he'd shown some life lately with seven points in his last 12 contests.
