Fleury suffered the injury late in Saturday's 5-2 triumph over the Buffalo Sabres but still finished the contest.
"He's not going to play," Penguins coach Michel Therrien said Monday. "It's not a major injury, but we don't want to take any risks. That's why we want to be really cautious with his injury."
Fleury, who did not practice Monday, is 8-3-2 with a 2.86 goals-against average and a .907 save percentage this season.
Dany Sabourin will start in his place.
