Jokinen needs to undergo surgery on his shoulder, Sami Hoffren of Sports Sanomat reports.

Analysis:

Jokinen is currently a free agent, and plans to decide if he would like to continue his career as a professional hockey player after undergoing surgery on his shoulder. Jokinen told reporters Monday, "it could be over. Or I'll play in the NHL, Europe or beer league." It remains to be seen if any NHL clubs will have any interest in acquiring Jokinen's services in 2015-16, but he'll need to get healthy before that's even a possibility.
