Petry (lower body) is now listed on injured reserve, Marc Antoine Godin of Montreal's La Presse reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Arpon Basu of LNH.com, Petry will not travel with the Canadiens as they're bound for a three-game road trip that begins with Friday's match against the Sabres. Habs coach Michel Therrien did not say exactly when Petry will return, but indicated that the defenseman will miss "the next few games." With Petry unavailable, look for Greg Pateryn to fill in on the blue line Saturday, albeit in a role not conducive to putting up fantasy stats.

Petry will miss Tuesday's matchup with Tampa Bay due to a lower-body injury, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Petry is on pace to have the highest scoring season of his career as long as this most recent ailment does not keep him out long term. Despite an uptick in production, the defenseman is not going to be competing for the Norris Trophy any time soon, as he has tallied just 16 points in 51 contests. The 28-year-old does offer some value on special teams where he's averaged 1:48 of power-play ice time which has resulted in one goal and four assists with the man advantage.
