To me it doesn't really matter how many games Hossa could miss, and neither am I concern about it. I truly believe the Hawks can win those games without him considering they have been through this same position last year when the team was playing without Marty Havlat for a substantial time. They manage to win against the same teams that Hossa will miss as well. We have a great group of players who will hold things together while he is recovering from his surgery, and he can't play this coming season, then I wouldn't worry too much about it, that just means that he will come back at a hundred, and ten percent, and ready to have a breakout season.
