COLUMBUS -- The Columbus Blue Jackets placed center/right wing Tyler Wright on the injured reserve list Wednesday.
Wright, 30, sustained a hyperextended right elbow early in the Blue Jackets' 3-2 win over Vancouver on Monday night. He is expected to be out three weeks.
Along with Geoff Sanderson, Wright is one of two players selected by Columbus in the 2000 expansion draft who is still with the club.
He scored a career-high 19 goals and had 30 points a year ago in 70 games. He has totaled 48 goals and 86 points in his three full seasons with the Blue Jackets.
Briere injured in off-ice workout
BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Sabres center Daniel Briere injured his hamstring during an off-ice workout Wednesday and is day-to-day.
After being examined by team trainers, Briere joined the club for their six-game, 11-day road trip that starts Thursday at Edmonton.
Earlier Wednesday, Buffalo coach Lindy Ruff thought the injury would keep Briere, the Sabres' No. 2 center behind Chris Drury, out of the lineup.
As a precaution, the Sabres called up forward Domenic Pittis from Rochester of the AHL and sent goaltender Ryan Miller to Rochester.
Forwards Tim Connolly (concussion), Jochen Hecht (broken arm) and Eric Boulton (thumb) are currently on the injured list.
