Brown undergoes abdominal surgery.
A team spokesperson passes along that Ducks right wing Mike Brown had surgery on Friday to repair a torn abdominal muscle, the result of "wear and tear." The surgery was performed by Dr. William Meyers in Philadelphia. Recovery time is expected to be four-to-six weeks.
Brown, 24, had six goals and an assist in 75 games for the Ducks this season, mostly as a fourth-line winger, and did not miss any games due to injury. He also amassed 106 penalty minutes.
