Dallas Stars defenseman John Klingberg will be out of action for the next two to four weeks after suffering a lower-body injury in the second period of his team's 4-1 victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday. The 27-year-old took a big hit from Avalanche defender Nikita Zadorov in the neutral zone and appeared to have fallen awkwardly on one of his legs. Following the collision, Klingberg hobbled to the bench and did not return to the game. The injury comes at a rough time for Klingberg and his fantasy owners as he had actually picked up a power-play assist earlier in the frame - something he's struggled to do this season with just four points (one goal, three assists) in 17 contests. Sitting eighth in the NHL in points-per-game over the previous two seasons, the Swedish native will likely need to wait until late November to turn his season around and begin scoring at an elite rate once again. He'll be re-evaluated by team doctors in two weeks.--Chase Davis - RotoBaller
