Schwartz (upper body) has been designated for injured reserve, per the NHL media site.

Schwartz is expected to be sidelined for at least six weeks, so his placement on IR shouldn't come as a surprise. With the 29-year-old winger on the shelf, Alex Wennberg has shifted to the wing on the first line while Marcus Johansson also steps into a top-six role. Prior to getting hurt, Schwartz was struggling with just one goal in his last seven outings despite putting 14 shots on net.
