On Thursday we learned that Logan Stanley had tweaked something which was why he wasn’t in the lineup against the Oilers on Wednesday night and that he was being further evaluated. Today’s media availability with Jets coach Scott Arniel began with an update on the 6’7 blueliner who will need surgery on his knee, which he is having today. He will be out of the lineup for at least four weeks. It’s a meniscus issue according to the bench boss.
Tough news for the Ontario product who had a very good shot at that sixth spot on the blueline. That sentiment was reiterated by Arniel when detailing the injuries that Stanley suffered two seasons ago when he broke his ankle twice in the same season.
