Flames' Johnny Gaudreau: Undergoes successful surgery

Gaudreau (finger) underwent successful surgery Wednesday and is expected to return in six weeks.

Analysis:

A hard season for the Flames just got even harder now that they'll be without their staple player for the next month and a half. Calgary's young players will need to step up in Gaudreau's absence for the Flames and fantasy owners alike. On that note, Matt Tkachuk has been a notable beneficiary of extra ice time over the last two games.
