Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie will be out indefinitely after undergoing surgery to repair his fractured right clavicle, the team announced Sunday. The team didn't put a timetable on his return, but he is expected to miss the rest of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Oshie was injured Thursday in Game 4 of the first-round series with the Carolina Hurricanes. He was hit in the back by Hurricanes forward Warren Foegele and crashed into the boards, shoulder first. Foegele received a two-minute minor penalty.
Oshie, 32, had 54 points (25 goals, 29 assists) in 69 games in the regular season. He had a goal and an assist in the series against the Hurricanes before suffering the injury. The Capitals lead the series 3-2 and will meet the Hurricanes in Game 6 on Monday night in Raleigh, N.C.
