Kesler undergoes hip surgery

Anaheim Ducks center Ryan Kesler underwent surgery last week and will resume full activity in 12 weeks' time, the club reported Saturday.

According to the team, the 32-year-old had a "general cleaning" procedure to remove bone fragments in his hip.

Kesler is coming off a 2016-17 campaign in which he did not miss a single game.

The former first-round pick registered 22 goals and 36 assists in 82 regular-season games, while also playing a key role in the Ducks' Stanley Cup Playoffs run, chipping in eight points.
