Pittsburgh Penguins forward Scott Wilson requires surgery to repair a lower-body injury and will be out indefinitely, the team announced Thursday.
Wilson has been seen protecting what's believed to be a right ankle injury by wearing crutches and a walking boot.
He suffered the knock in an awkward collision last week in a game versus the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The bottom-six contributor re-upped with the Penguins this week, signing a two-year extension.
