Jakub Vrana will undergo shoulder surgery, missing a minimum of four months, Detroit Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill said Thursday.
Vrana, who arrived at training camp late after a visa issue, aggravated his shoulder after about 10 minutes on the ice. After seeing a specialist, it was determined that surgery would be the best course of action.
The 25-year-old winger had given a spark to the Red Wings' offense after arriving from the Washington Capitals last year at the trade deadline. In 11 games with the Red Wings, Vrana had eight goals and three assists.
