Blackhawks' Versteeg 'could be out for a bit'
WASHINGTON (AP) - Chicago Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville says left wing Kris Versteeg "could be out for a bit" with an injury sustained in the Winter Classic.
Versteeg was hurt when he blocked Eric Fehr's shot with his left hand early in the third period of Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Washington Capitals.
"He could be out for a bit, but we'll know more" on Friday, Quenneville said.
Versteeg has nine goals and 18 assists this season.
