TO does it again. Markov out for 2 – 4 months
Per Kevin Mio from habsinsideout.com
Canadiens defenceman Andrei Markov underwent surgery to repair tendon damage on Thursday night and will be out of action for at least two months, according to reports on Friday. However, RDS is saying the injury could keep him out of action for as long as four months.
Markov was cut on the ankle by Carey Price’s skate as the goaltender scrambled to get back into position seconds before the Maple Leafs scored their third goal of the game in the third period Thursday night.
This is the second straight game at the Air Canada Centre in which Markov has been hurt. During Montreal’s final game there last season, he was run into the boards from behind my Mikhail Grabovski, injuring his knee and forcing Markov out of action for the remainder of the regular season and playoffs.
More details to come.
