Trouba (upper-body) will be out until February.

Trouba, who missed practice on Monday was listed as “probable” but will now apparently miss at least the next month and a half. The Jets blue line has been decimated, they head into Tuesday’s game without Trouba, Zach Bogosian and Tobias Enstrom, their three biggest minute eaters.

Trouba (undisclosed) is probable for Tuesday’s game vs. Buffalo.

Trouba missed practice on Monday, but is expected to be in the lineup tomorrow. The Jets already have a ton of holes on the blue line because of injuries, so missing Trouba would be a huge loss. He has two goals and six assists in his last nine games.
