Wanted: Loktionov Update

Yes, I know that Monday was Trademas and everything, but it was also the day Andrei Loktionov had his MRI on his "other" shoulder. Since he's arguably our #1 prospect not named Brayden Schenn, it would be nice to know the results.

According to Dimitri Chesnokov he’ll have surgery this week.

[UPDATE:]

Per Hammond, Lokti to be operated on here in LA, expected to be ready for camp in the fall.

I keep thinking about something Quisp said around this time last season, about how some people seem to be born with loose shoulder joints, and surgery can actually improve them by tightening up the joint. Since it’s the other shoulder in this case, he should be all fixed up when all is said and done….

so unlucky. poor kid.

best of luck with the recovery, Lokti. hopefully your recovery goes well, you come back stronger than ever (with shoulders as tight as a…), and TM & DL give you a roster spot out of training camp. After the way you impressed, you deserve it!
