Rafalski goes under the knife

arthroscopic knee surgery (isn't believed to be too serious)

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Brian Rafalski is having arthroscopic surgery on his knee at noon today.

Coach Mike Babcock said he doesn’t think Rafalski will be out long.

“He had a little pain and it hadn’t reacted the way it had in the past,’’ Babcock said. “He had the back surgery this summer and the quads probably aren’t as strong, so his knee, which he hurt when he was 18, suddenly there’s more wear and tear.

“They decided they needed to have a quick look and clean it up. Don’t think it’s very long, but don’t know until you get in there.’’

Meh...piece of cake. I've had it done numerous times to both knees. He'll be back out there in no time.

TSN suggesting 3-4 weeks.
Red Wings lose Rafalski for three-to-four weeks
