The surgery was performed by Dr. Brian McKeon at New England Baptist Hospital, and Allen is expected to begin rehabilitation immediately under the medical staff's supervision. </div> Source
What a great summer for tony. There was a shooting, now surgery. Hopefully he wont b out for too long.
There's been speculation on at least one other board that the C's had Tony go under the knife now so that his "rehabilitation" could be a convenient cover for keeping him off the active roster until the legal ramifications of the shooting incident become clearer. Do you suppose that could actually be the case?
