As the season was winding down for the Calgary Flames, some players were missing games, since they weren’t important down the stretch. We knew there were injuries, but we didn’t quite know the specifics. We knew that Kris Versteeg, who had hip surgery, somewhat rushed back and was out of the lineup because of that.
But Sean Monahan, TJ Brodie, and Matthew Tkachuk also missed the last couple of weeks. As the players cleaned out their lockers, we learned what those injuries were.
Tkachuk suffered an injury against the New York Islanders on March 11.
