Jets' Andrew Ladd undergoes surgery to repair sports hernia

In and out from under the knife, Winnipeg Jets captain Andrew Ladd underwent surgery Friday in St. Louis to repair a sports hernia, the team announced.

Ladd scored 24 goals and recorded a career-best 62 points despite being afflicted by the painful injury for much of the season.

He's expected to be ready for training camp to begin the final season of his current five-year, $22-million deal.
