There's no such thing as a good time to suffer a serious injury. But Logan Stanley says he was particularly frustrated when he went down with a torn meniscus in mid-January.

The towering 18-year-old Windsor Spitfires defenceman — a first-round draft pick of the Winnipeg Jets last summer — was just rounding into form following a tough start to the season.
