Philadelphia Flyers forward Kevin Hayes could be out until mid-November following his second procedure of the offseason.
Hayes will miss six-to-eight weeks after undergoing abdominal surgery Tuesday. The 29-year-old required five weeks to recover from a core muscle operation he underwent in late May.
Philadelphia's No. 2 center notched 12 goals and 19 assists while averaging 17:31 of ice time over 55 games last season, Hayes' second campaign with the club.
The Flyers also provided additional updates Tuesday. Defenseman-turned forward Samuel Morin will be out six-to-eight weeks from Sept. 10, when he underwent right knee surgery. Forward Wade Allison is out indefinitely with a right ankle sprain, while 2020 draft pick Zayde Wisdom is also out indefinitely following shoulder surgery.
