Philadelphia Flyers foward Tyler Pitlick underwent surgery to repair a tear in his wrist last week and will miss at least the beginning training camp. According to the Flyers, he will begin rehab next week and will be out at least a month.

If he has to miss any games when the regular season starts, it shouldn't be many, barring any complications.
Pitlick has yet to suit up for the Flyers in an NHL game. He was acquired from the Dallas Stars in June in exchange for Ryan Hartman. Other than Dallas, Pitlick has also played for Edmonton, the team that drafted him in the 2nd round in 2010. In 185 NHL games, he has 33 goals and 53 points.
