The Washington Capitals have just been dealt a huge blow to their blue line.
John Carlson is expected to miss three-to-four weeks after undergoing a procedure on Saturday to repair a nagging lower-body injury, reports Isabelle Khurshudyan of the Washington Post.
Carlson missed Friday's game against the Minnesota Wild due to the ailment that also cost him 12 games earlier this year.
The 26-year-old has six goals and 25 assists in 47 games this season.
