Huge Blow for CBJ prospect
According to Kevin Dube of Le Journal de Quebec, prize Jackets prospect Jordan Dumais will require double hip surgery, as well as surgery to repair a sports hernia injury.
Dumais returned to Columbus last weekend to have an MRI done according to Dube, where the injuries were diagnosed yesterday. Dumais had been in discomfort for a few years and it got worse during Team Canada camp.
Dumais could be back for the Halifax playoffs in April if his rehab goes well. This also means he should be ok for the start of CBJ training camp this September.
