Philadelphia Flyers leading goal scorer Jeff Carter(notes) will miss three to four weeks with a broken bone in his left foot.
Carter suffered the injury off a shot from Atlanta’s Clarke MacArthur(notes) in the first period of Sunday night’s 3-1 Thrashers’ win.
When he misses Tuesday night’s game in Ottawa, Carter will end a streak of 286 consecutive games played. That’s the third-longest in team history.
“Jeff’s a tough kid, when he’s able to come back and play, he will,” general manager Paul Holmgren said. “Other guys have to pick up their socks a little bit.”
