Carolina Hurricanes workhorse defender Justin Faulk is expected to miss at least another three games with an undisclosed injury.
Faulk will not travel to Ottawa, the team announced Wednesday, adding that he's been ruled out for games versus the San Jose Sharks and Tampa Bay Lightning this weekend.
Peters said Faulk will not travel with the #Canes to Ottawa. "We are going to be smart about this."

Faulk suffered what's believed to be a leg injury crashing into the boards at practice last week.
The Hurricanes have two wins and a point earned in a shootout loss in his three-game absence.
