Wheeler sustained a lower-body injury during Thursday's game against Montreal and won't return to the contest.
Wheeler entered Thursday's action with nine goals and 21 points in 53 appearances this season. If he misses Sunday's match versus the Islanders, then Alex Belzile might make his season debut.
