Surgery for Shafranov

Komets left wing Konstantin Shafranov underwent surgery today to repair a broken bone in an undisclosed area, general manager David Franke said.

Shafranov, who has missed the last four games with a concussion, will be out until at least mid-December. Depdending on the outcome of this surgery, it could be longer now.

Shafranov has two goals and six point in nine games. He suffered the concussion when he was elbowed by Dayton's Greg Labenski, who received a five-game suspension for the act.
