Fantasy Analysis
Brian Gionta himself relayed that the procedure went well, and with the entire offseason in front of him to recover, the Canadiens' winger should be all systems go by the fall. (Updated 5/12/13).
Brian Gionta missed more than half of the 2011-12 season after he underwent surgery to repair a torn biceps. A return to full health is expected and he'll skate as the second line right wing alongside center Tomas Plekanec and a to-be-determined left winger. You can typically pencil in Gionta for a 20-20 campaign, but he's approaching his 34-year-old season and we always worry about injuries to smaller-stature guys like Gionta, especially ones that like to initiate contact the way Gionta does.
