Dallas Stars right winger Ales Hemsky will be out five to six months
after undergoing hip surgery, the team announced Monday.
The initial injury occurred while Hemsky was playing for Team Czech
Republic at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey.
Under the team's timetable, the earliest Hemsky could be back would
be late March or early April.
After missing the first four games of the season, the 33-year-old
Hemsky aggravated the injury against the Columbus Blue Jackets on
Oct. 22, during which he played 25 shifts, logged 15:32 of ice time
and took one shot on net. He was placed back on injured reserve
after the game.
