Ottawa Senators defenceman Christian Wolanin nearing return
Ottawa Senators sophomore defenceman Christian Wolanin is nearing a return from an injury that caused him to miss five months.
Christian Wolanin is a big part of the Ottawa Senators future, and was expected to man a big role on the Senators blue line. That all changed when he tore his labrum in his shoulder before the season even began.
Recovery was supposed to take at least four months, but it ended up taking over five months to get the 24-year old d-man up to full strength.
He will finish this season down in Belleville, with an increased role for conditioning, so he can be his absolute best when he plays a big role in Ottawa next year.
