Elias Salomonsson Out 5-6 Months After Shoulder Surgery
Winnipeg Jets defenseman Elias Salomonsson (shoulder) underwent shoulder surgery on Thursday and will be out for five to six months, the team announced. The 21-year-old Swedish native made his first 32 career NHL appearances this season, recording five points (one goal, four assists), 37 shots on goal, 27 blocks, and 50 hits, with a minus-six rating. His NHL campaign ended with a concussion in early April. Salomonsson returned to action in the AHL on April 24, playing in a couple of postseason games. Due to his shoulder surgery, Salomonsson is likely to sit out training camp in the fall, affecting his chances of earning a spot on the Jets roster.
