Blue Jackets' Nyquist has shoulder surgery

Columbus Blue Jackets winger Gustav Nyquist is expected to need five-to-six months to recover after undergoing shoulder surgery the club announced Wednesday.

Nyquist had the surgery on Tuesday to repair a labral tear of his left shoulder.

"This was a chronic issue that Gus has been dealing with for a number of seasons," Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen said. "He has been able to perform at a high level, but a cyst in the area developed over time that has inhibited his ability to continue to do so. As a result, surgery was the best course of action and we look forward to having him back at full strength this season."

welp that did no good



He thinks he's better than he is and he'll end up going to Montreal or Ottawa and end up playing on bad teams, especially if he goes to Ottawa. Some Quebecois are divas and apparently PLD is just like that.

Edit to add: If/when he dogs it, he'll be a healthy scratch too. Jarmo won't trade him until he gets the deal he wants out of it.

I don't know how true it is but I've seen rumblings that PLD is trying to dictate where he gets traded to. Apparently he is not aware of that not being how it works.
