Edmonton Oilers coach Ralph Krueger said center Anton Lander will miss at least a month with a broken foot.

In four games this season Lander had one assist and a minus-1 rating in 9:40 of ice time per game.

A 2009 second-round pick, Lander had six points in 56 games with the Oilers last season while also spending time with the club's American Hockey League team, the Oklahoma City Barons.

Lander is the fourth Oilers center to get hurt recently. Eric Belanger is on injured reserve with broken toes, Shawn Horcoff is on IR with a broken knuckle and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins sat out Wednesday's game with an upper-body injury.
