Pittsburgh Penguins forward Dominik Simon will be out six-to-seven months after undergoing surgery on his left shoulder on April 29, general manager Jim Rutherford announced Thursday.
Simon, 25, suffered the injury Feb. 29 during a game against the San Jose Sharks and missed the team's five contests before the season was suspended March 12.
The 5-foot-11 pivot has recorded seven goals and 22 points while logging 14:24 of average ice time through 64 games. He's set to become a restricted free agent at the end of the 2019-20 season.
