 UNIONDALE, N.Y. (AP) - New York Islanders defenseman Radek Martinek broke a foot and will be out of action for four weeks.
Martinek, one of New York's top defensemen this season, was injured Tuesday night during the Islanders' victory over the Rangers. He finished that game and then played the following night in a loss at Ottawa.
"Radek has been a warrior for us, maybe our most consistent defenseman," Islanders coach Ted Nolan said Saturday. "It says a lot about him that he continued to play during the Rangers game and the whole game the next night in Ottawa because he didn't want to take himself out of the lineup.
