By luck, my girlfriend had ACL surgery in Toronto (fell playing tennis) and the surgeon who operated on her is the same guy who looks after the Leafs and Blue Jays. I met him. Great guy. Wish Zary could see him.
Her rehab has been good but Zary's injury might be worse.

That doctor is the team physician, he likely doesn’t actually operate on the players on those teams. NHL guys are generally coming down to the US when they’re actually getting on the operating table, so solid chance that if the swelling isn’t too bad, he stays down in the US.
Wouldn’t be surprised if with the team having just played in Anaheim and supposed have played in LA tonight, he’s going straight to Neal ElAttrache and maybe stays in LA to get surgery when the swelling goes down. Guy is one of the best knee surgeons in the world.
