NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Philadelphia Flyers' leading scorer Peter Forsberg will be sidelined for seven to 10 days with a groin injury, coach Ken Hitchcock said.
"He's obviously not going to play Saturday or Monday and then we'll evaluate it from there," Hitchcock told the club's Web site.
"Right now, this is a minor injury and we don't want to make anything more of it, but this is now the third occurrence in that area and that's the part that's concerning everybody right now."
The 32-year-old Swedish Olympian has recorded 47 assists and 62 points this season.
