BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Buffalo Sabres leading scorer Jeff Skinner is out indefinitely with an upper body injury, the team announced on Thursday.

The Sabres provided no details on the injury or when Skinner was hurt except to list him as week to week. Skinner scored his 17th goal and added an assist in playing 24 shifts in a 5-2 loss to Seattle on Tuesday.

Skinner is coming off two consecutive 30-goal seasons and currently ranks second on the team with 33 points in 38 games this year.

The Sabres host Ottawa on Thursday night.
