Johnson surgery
I spoke to a Kings official who confirmed that Jack Johnson had successful surgery earlier today to repair a partially torn labrum in his left shoulder. Johnson will be out two to three months.
Also, I spoke to Kyle Quincey just before the game started and will have more on that later tonight after the game.

Dude it's good to hear the surgery went well. I found myself checking out WebMD to understand exactly what he tore. As it turns out it's the same sorta injury that Chad Johnson had, although I forget if he is gonna take surgery.
Why do they keep saying "he'll be out 2 to 3 months and won't be back until after the all-star break"?
Do they think we're not going to do the math and realize that it's 3 to 4 months until after the all-star break?
