Injuries for important players plagued the Montreal Canadiens at the end of the season and probably played a major role in their early exit from the 2009 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Forwards, Alex Tanguay and Max Pacioretty, have already undergone successful surgeries and winger, Sergei Kostitsyn, will go under the knife today.

As a huge fan of Tanguay’s, I’m thrilled that his arthroscopic procedure might have solved his lingering shoulder problem. He becomes an unrestricted free agent on July 1, 2009 but he has expressed his desire to remain with the Habs. I hope it works out because I think he’s a valuable player if he stays healthy.
Pacioretty had an abdominal wall muscle repaired on Wednesday while Kostisyn is to undergo arthroscopic surgery on a shoulder.
They are all expected to be well enough to participate in training camp this September.
