When it's said a minimum of 1 week, does that mean he'll be completely off the ice? If so, how long after that would he need to get to the point where the fear of him re-aggrevating it is minimal?
I think that means the full duration he would be out and back playing again.
I'm sure they will give him 2-3 days off and see where the injury is at, then back on the ice after that for practices until he's ready again.
If it truly is a strain, it shouldn't take long at all to get back. Also, this is better news than if it had been a groin injury. A LOT better.
