Mandatory Credit: James Guillory-Imagn Images Boston Bruins defenseman Hampus Lindholm is "unlikely" to return to action this season as he works his way back from knee surgery, general manager Don Sweeney said on Sunday.
Per Sweeney, Lindholm will have another surgery next week related to the fractured patella tendon he sustained after blocking a shot from St. Louis Blues defenseman Justin Faulk in the first period of a game on Nov. 12.
Lindholm, 31, has seven points (three goals, four assists) and a minus-4 rating in 17 games this season.
An All-Star in 2022-23, Lindholm has 313 points (73 goals, 240 assists) and a plus-147 rating in 762 career games with the Anaheim Ducks (2013-22) and Bruins. The Ducks selected the Swede with the sixth overall pick in the 2012 NHL Draft.
