Edmonton Oilers defenceman Nikita Nikitin is out 4-6 weeks after injuring his shoulder during Thursday's game against the Buffalo Sabres.
"There's no surgery with him, it's just more or less trying to get better," said Oilers interim coach Todd Nelson.
With Nikitin out, Keith Aulie will be in the lineup against the Flames in Calgary on Saturday.
