The Edmonton Oilers will be without key offseason free agent acquisition Benoit Pouliot for the foreseeable future.

The play-driving ace left Friday's game between the Oilers and the New Jersey Devils in the second period after blocking a shot. He didn't return and it appears that he'll miss a good deal of time.

Pouliot has three goals and eight points in 19 games with the Oilers this season.
