Bjugstad suffers another major injury, will miss significant time.

The injury woes for former first round draft pick Nick Bjugstad are starting early this season.

According to a report from George Richards a Bjugstad has suffered a broken after he crashed into the goal cage earlier this week in preseason action against the Dallas Stars. It's expected that Bjugstad will miss at least a month with the injury.

The 26 year old center has not played a full season for the Florida Panthers since being drafted by the team 19th overall at the 2010 National Hockey League Entry Draft and there's no doubt that with his current injury that trend will continue.

The frustration from fans in Florida at the news is already evident.
