Burish has recorded 309 penalty minutes and 17 points in 156 regular-season games over the last three years with the Blackhawks before he was injured. Burish registered career highs with six goals and nine points in 66 regular-season contests last season before collecting five points in 17 tilts during the Stanley Cup. But now he has to leave the ice to have a knee surgery.
The following statement was issued by Chicago Blackhawks Head Team Physician Dr. Michael Terry: "Adam Burish went into the boards on Sunday night in Minnesota and injured his right knee. When a player like him leaves the ice it is always concerning, and unfortunately he suffered an ACL tear. He will undergo a reconstruction as soon as possible and we anticipate a complete recovery. His return will take approximately six months."
