The Tampa Bay Lightning aren't planning to have Ryan Callahan back in the lineup until mid-February.
The veteran forward will be out for about another month with what the Lightning are calling a lower-body injury, the club announced Sunday.
Callahan hasn't played since Jan. 7, and he's only appeared in 18 of Tampa Bay's 44 games this season.
He underwent hip surgery in June that prevented him from representing the United States at the World Cup of Hockey.
