Winnipeg Jets forward Marko Dano will miss about eight weeks with a lower-body injury, coach Paul Maurice said Saturday.
The Jets placed the 22-year-old forward on injured reserve Friday, one day after he was injured when he crashed into the end boards during the second period of Winnipeg's 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Dano has three goals and 10 points in 28 games this season.
The Jets have recalled forward Andrew Copp from Manitoba of the American Hockey League. Copp has four goals and seven points in 22 games.
