In separate tweets, Maloney was quoted as saying, “The likelihood of him returning this season is remote but we do anticipate a full recovery,” as well as, “He’s still a young man. We’ve got to get him better. We need to get him where he’s healthy & can help us win.”
Hanzal has not played since Jan. 29, when he scored the winning goal in a 3-1 victory over Toronto.
The 27-year-old has appeared in 37 games this season, tallying eight goals, 16 assists and 24 penalty minutes.
