The New York Islanders placed Dennis Seidenberg on injured reserve with an upper-body injury Monday, announcing that the defenseman will be out indefinitely.
Seidenberg is reported to have broken his jaw during Saturday's game against the Florida Panthers, sources told Arthur Staple of Newsday.
In a corresponding move, the Islanders have recalled defenseman Scott Mayfield from the team's American Hockey League affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. The 24-year-old has one goal and one assist in 12 games this season.
