The Montreal Canadiens will be without their top goal-scorer for at least one game.

That's the word from head coach Michel Therrien, who confirmed that Max Pacioretty will not suit up for Thursday's game against the Detroit Red Wings after suffering what's been called an upper-body injury this past weekend.

The team remains in Florida following Sunday's win over the Panthers. Pacioretty is set to travel home with the club, at which point he will be further evaluated by team doctors.

Pacioretty leads the team with 37 goals and 67 points.
