New York Islanders forward and leading goal scorer Bo Horvat will not be joining the team on this road trip.

He has not suffered a setback and has been skating on his own back on Long Island for the last three days.

Horvat, who is dealing with his second lower-body injury of the season, has missed the last six games and will miss at least the next two before the Islanders return home from their seven-game road trip.

The Islanders first game back at UBS Arena is on Jan. 24, a 1 PM ET game against the Buffalo Sabres.
