Boone Jenner is likely to miss the remainder of the season for the Columbus Blue Jackets following shoulder surgery. The 31-year-old forward sustained the injury during practice on October 4.
General Manager Don Waddell indicated that recovery could take 5-6 months, which would place Jenner's return around early March. Despite the setback, Waddell emphasized Jenner's leadership role and the opportunity for younger players to step up in his absence.
