Report: Kyle Quincey to Miss Six Weeks with Ankle Surgery, Datsyuk May Return Friday

Quincey's right ankle will keep him out of the lineup for the foreseeable future

When Kyle Quincey finished the game on October 23rd (an OT loss to Calgary), fans were already worried about the guy's health, having watched him take a blindside head shot from the Flames' Sam Bennett. Sure enough, Quincey missed the next week's worth of games while undergoing concussion protocol. We've since learned that wasn't his only injury.

Last week, Quincey told reporters that he had an injury in his right ankle suffered during training camp very similar to the bone chips in his left ankle for which he underwent offseason surgery.
