New York Islanders captain Anders Lee will be sidelined indefinitely with a lower-body injury, the team announced Friday.

Lee was in visible pain on the ice after getting tangled up with the New Jersey Devils' Pavel Zacha during Thursday's 5-3 victory.

The 30-year-old leads the Islanders with 12 goals this season and has also racked up seven assists in 27 games. After Thursday's win, the Islanders find themselves in first place in the East Division.
