Kinda making this situation a bit conflicting as he's suppose to be with the team for the stretch run of the season but was just placed on injured reserve.
As stated in a recent post a, doctor by the name of Dr. Harjas Grewal provided an updated on Fox along with provided a potential timeline for his returned depending on what type of injury he's suffered.
Here's what he said:
Just like Tanev, mechanism can cause a separated shoulder (time off depends on type, usually a 1-3 week window for NHLers) or broken collarbone (8-12+ weeks) for Fox
So by the sounds of it, it appears he didn't break anything and will only miss a few weeks.
