It's definitely not good news for Matt Luff of the Detroit Red Wings. The team has announced he needs surgery on his wrist after a dangerous hit from behind by Juraj Slafkovsky of the Montreal Canadiens Tuesday night. According to head coach Derek Lalonde, Luff will miss 10 to 12 weeks.

Slafkovsky was given a five minute major and a game misconduct for the hit. He also has a hearing with the Department of Player Safety and will likely be suspended.
Luff, 25, has played seven games with Detroit this season, as well as another five with Grand Rapids of the AHL.
