Blue Jackets forward Matt Calvert underwent surgery this morning to repair an abdominal injury, club GM Jarmo Kekalainen announced today. The surgery was performed by Dr. William Meyers at the Vincera Institute in Philadelphia and is expected to sideline Calvert for approximately six weeks.  

Calvert, 23, has recorded seven hits, two takeaways and four shots on goal in three appearances thus far on the 2013-14 campaign.
