Yeah, weird, right? A torn meniscus seems like a surgery no-brainer. Must have been a moderate tear and the docs hoped surgery wasn't necessary. Another bad bet. Ugh.
Exactly. That's why I thought that something wrong. It's also a minor, routine procedure. You can go home right afterwards. No idea why they waited if it really was torn. My mum had that surgery done at 60 and went home by bicycle. 30' ride maybe. Next day she was doing garden work for hours. Obviously different from playing pro hockey but still...odd.
