Eller will likely sit out at least one week for rest before resuming on-ice activities the following week, and will return near the end of the month.
The 25-year-old Dane was injured in the Canadiens' defeat to the Chicago Blackhawks last week and missed the team's games at Dallas and against Vancouver as a result.
He has seven goals and 11 points in 28 appearances for Montreal this season. His four game-winning goals are the best mark of any man in hockey.
Sven Andrighetto, a rookie, has replaced Eller, and has two points in two contests, including an assist on Tomas Plekanec's game-clinching score against Vancouver Tuesday night.
