Ottawa Senators defenceman Artem Zub is expected to miss three to four weeks with a jaw injury after being hit by a puck in the face during Friday's win against the New York Rangers, coach D.J. Smith told reporters on Monday.
It is the second injury that will cause Zub to miss time this season.
The Russian was out just over three weeks with an upper-body injury suffered in late October.
Zub has two goals and two assists in four games this season.
