Michael Del Zotto left Saturday's game after a collision with Kyle Palmieri

Del Zotto will be out "weeks" after suffering an upper-body injury in a collision with the Devils' Kyle Palmieri in Saturday's game, reports the Associated Press.

Analysis:

For the last couple weeks, Del Zotto has had his left wrist taped up. The collision Saturday occurred when he took Palmieri into Philly netminder Michal Neuvirth. Replays showed his left arm either went into Neuvirth's helmet or the post at high speed. Del Zotto has been the team's biggest minute muncher on the back end and has contributed four goals and nine assists in 51 games.
