Andreas Lilja: Hip Surgery

Lilja will miss four months after undergoing hip surgery, reports the Swedish newspaper Helsinborgs Dagblad.

Analysis: The Flyers' D has taken a beating lately. Matt Carle left as a free agent. Chris Pronger is still out and could be done for his career. Andrej Meszaros just underwent surgery after tearing his Achilles tendon. And now Lilja. While the latter isn't counted on for offense, he is certainly a steady, creas-clearing, third-pairing guy. From a fantasy perspective, the impact will hit owners of Ilya Bryzgalov the hardest.
