It depends on the severity of the injury, but skate lacerations requiring surgery are usually around a 3 or 4 month recovery time. I'd be surprised to see him back before the end of January. It could be perfect timing though, a few weeks with the Wranglers to get back up to speed, then join the Flames around the trade deadline after Tanev and Hanifin are moved.
