Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Travis Dermott is out week-to-week after suffering a shoulder injury Wednesday night against the Edmonton Oilers, head coach Mike Babcock told reporters, including TSN's Kristen Shilton.

Dermott was checked awkwardly into the boards by Oilers forward Brad Malone.

The 22-year-old was clutching his left arm as he left the ice.

The Maple Leafs announced earlier Wednesday that fellow blue-liner Jake Gardiner is out week-to-week with a back injury.

Depth defensemen Martin Marincin and Justin Holl will both play Thursday against the New York Islanders, while Igor Ozhiganov will come out of the lineup, Babcock added.
