Durzi (upper body) is expected to require surgery to address his injury, which will keep him out of action for 4-5 months, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

Durzi will likely be sidelined until after the 4 Nations Face-Off in mid-February. This is a massive blow to Utah's blue line, especially since John Marino (upper body) is also absent on a week-to-week basis. Michael Kesselring took over Durzi's top-pairing role Wednesday versus the Ducks, while Juuso Valimaki is poised for more power-play time.
