Valtteri Filppula is projected to be sidelined for six to eight weeks because of a sprained right knee.
The injury occurred in an SM-liiga game on Tuesday. Filppula had been playing very well back in Finland and he's slated to occupy a spot in Detroit's top-six forward group when the lockout comes to an end.
