Chicago will be without Patrick Sharp for the next three-to-four weeks because of what is believed to be a hand or wrist injury.
He scored his 20th goal of the season on Sunday, but Detroit's Jiri Hudler slashed him on his wrist as he fired the shot. Sharp stayed the game and later tumbled during a penalty kill. He landed on his hands. The good news is that he won't need surgery. This is an unfortunate blow to Sharp, who might have surpassed his career-high of 36 goals if he had stayed healthy.
