The Philadelphia Flyers discovered last Sunday that defenseman Chris Pronger has a fracture on his right hand that will require surgery.
The alternate captain will be out 3-4 weeks and will undergo the procedure on Thursday.
The defending Eastern Conference champions currently lead the conference in points with 91, but have seen their lead cut down to one point due to the resurgence of the Washington Capitals, who are currently on an eight-game winning streak.
Pronger had 25 points in 50 games and a plus-minus rating of seven.
Philadelphia kicks off a three-game road trip on Tuesday against the Florida Panthers.
