Lehtonen out another 6-8 weeks

Posted: 20 days 5 hrs 50 mins ago. | Source (fanball.com) (G - atl)

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Thrashers goaltender Kari Lehtonen will be sidelined an additional 6-8 weeks after undergoing another back surgery.

Our View: Lehtonen still hadn't recovered from his original back surgery this offseason, and he's already had another one. This doesn't bode well for him or the Thrashers and he won't be back until the end of 2009 at the earliest. The most recent procedure was performed to correct bone edges in his back that were pressing on nerves. Now all anyone can do is sit back and wait to see if it worked.

Kari Lehtonen will be sidelined for six to eight weeks after undergoing another back surgery. Lehtonen already had surgery on his back during the off-seson, but he hadn't been recovering from it. There were edges of bone that were applying pressure to his nerve roots and this procedure was intended to correct that. If Lehtonen's recovery goes as planned, he could be back by mid-to-late December.
