Winnipeg's Toby Enstrom out with concussion via illegal check

WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- Jets defenseman Toby Enstrom will be out indefinitely with a concussion, Jets coach Paul Maurice said Friday.

Enstrom took a crushing illegal check from behind into the boards by Pittsburgh forward Tom Sestito in the first period Wednesday night in the Jets' 7-4 loss to the Penguins. The NHL followed up Thursday by suspending Sestito for four games.

"There's no equitable way to sort this out because you can't measure what we lose," Maurice said. "The players suspended, they all have to be treated (the same) regardless of value to the game, so it is what it is.
