    me, logically: well, they got ahead of it and are taking care of it in columbus with some of the best doctors in the world. he’ll have a long rehab but then be able to join the monsters to start the 2024 season and work into game shape and continue developing.

    Brutal. That’s an insane injury/surgery to deal with at such a young age. Hope he recovers well

    Wonder if that’s been affecting him to cause the scout’s claims of “weak, slow moving skating”
    Only he knows how he must have been feeling leading up to requiring this

    The news is bad for the Mooseheads of Halifax, but there is still hope: their best striker and top player in the title in the LHJMQ, Jordan Dumais, will have to go under the sculpture but his season would not be over, the Journal learned.

    The hope of the Blue Jackets had left last Sunday to Columbus to undergo a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination there due to a hips injury he has been pulling for several years and that he aggravated during the last team Canada junior (ECJ) camp.

    This discomfort had bothered him quite a bit during the tournament which ended with a disappointing fifth place for Canada.

    The Blue Jackets prospect received the results Wednesday evening and an operation will be necessary on both hips, and doctors will also take the opportunity to resolve discomfort due to a sports hernia. The surgical intervention is scheduled for around ten days and a convalescence period varying from two to three months is planned, which means that Dumais could be back in action somewhere in April, therefore in the second or third round. playoffs, if the Mooseheads go there.

    A hard blow
    Even if he should be able to return to the playoffs, it is still a big blow for the Mooseheads, who are aiming for top honors this season.

    Before leaving to join ÉCJ, Dumais had scored 47 points in 21 games and seemed headed for a third straight 100-point season, a first in the QMJHL since Claude Giroux, who achieved the feat between 2005 and 2008.

    Dumais formed a devastating trio with Markus Vidicek and Mathieu Cataford, quite possibly the best on the circuit.

    All is not lost for the Mooseheads, however, who are ranked fourth overall. Halifax still has excellent players, starting with two other Canadian representatives at the last World Juniors: defender Jake Furlong and goaltender Mathis Rousseau, in addition to Vidicek and Cataford.

    Team general manager Cam Russell also added some interesting pieces during the last trade period, including 20-year-old forwards Lou-Félix Denis and Peter Reynolds, in addition to European player Jan Sprynar.

    Hard time
    The team led by former New York Rangers assistant coach Jim Midgley is currently going through a slower period.

    Since December 9, when four of their members left to join Junior Team Canada: Rousseau, Dumais, Furlong and Markus Vidicek, who was cut, the Mooseheads have won only four of their 10 games.
