| Giguere has hernia surgery
No doubt that he will be okay for start of season.
From burke post the successful operation:
Jiggy has had a history of some discomfort with his groin...
But the first time he informed us this might be a problem is last week. He’s been working out through the summer, doing different things, but he started his harder, more elevated, on-ice workouts last week and immediately felt some discomfort.
On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the most painful, he described it as being a 2 or 3. So, this is something that he quite possibly could have played through. But we figured that with an injury that is that central to a goaltender’s position, there is no point in taking a chance with it. So, we said let’s go ahead and take care of it now.
Our turnaround time from when the player first complained of the pain to surgery was seven or eight days.
No biggy.
