New York Rangers forward Sammy Blais is out six-to-eight months due to a knee injury, the team announced Tuesday.

The ailment is a torn ACL in his right knee, reports NHL.com's Dan Rosen.

Blais suffered the injury during Sunday's game against the New Jersey Devils after being clipped by P.K. Subban.

Blais registered four assists over 14 games with the Rangers this season. New York acquired the 25-year-old winger and a second-round pick from the St. Louis Blues during the offseason in exchange for Pavel Buchnevich.
