Philadelphia Flyers forward Scott Hartnell will miss anywhere from 4-to-8 weeks with a broken toe in his left foot.

Flyers GM Paul Holmgren confirmed the diagnosis and timetable prior to Thursday's home contest against the New York Rangers.

Hartnell, who was coming off a career-best 37-goal season in 2011-12, was felled in the second period of a 3-0 loss to New Jersey on Tuesday, when he was struck in the skate by a shot from teammate Kimmo Timonen.
