Vanek will miss 2-to-3 more weeks due to a muscle strain near his hip, MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vanek previously had the nebulous lower-body tag associated with his injury, but now fantasy owners know exactly what he's dealing with and have a timetable for his return. The Red Wings have enough talent up front to remain competitive without Vanek, though fantasy owners of the Austrian won't soon forget how hot he was to start the campaign, having notched eight points (four goals, four assists) in the first seven games.
