Dylan Guenther will be out indefinitely with a lower-body injury.
The forward played 16:47 and had two shots on goal in a 4-1 loss to the Florida Panthers on Wednesday, with the injury occuring on a hit with Panthers forward Aleksander Barkov.
Guenther leads Utah with 16 goals and is third on the team with 34 points (18 assists) in 40 games. The 21-year-old signed an eight-year contract on Sep. 20 which begins next season.
Coach Andre Tourigny said, “it’s long, but not that long,” when asked if the injury was season-ending.
Tourigny also said Guenther was in the building Friday morning to start his rehab.
Forward Josh Doan was recalled from Tucson of the American Hockey League on Friday. He has 21 points (eight goals, 13 assists) in 25 games since being assigned there on Oct. 28.
He has two points (one goal, one assist) in nine NHL games this season.
