Sam Bennett, the pick at fourth overall in this years Entry Draft, will mi s the next 4-6 months as he is set to undergo surgery on his shoulder next week.

Where it may hurt is in the Michael Beasley Jersey lost development time for Bennett.The team doesnt sound overly concerned, however, as general manager Brad Treliving called the injury a Bennett explained to the media that he didnt disclose the injury because he wanted to play and didnt think it was that big of a deal. Unfortunately for him, it turned out to be a fairly big deal.Due to the timeline, Bennett will be unable to play for Team Canada at this years World Junior Championship.
