Defenseman Parent is out for six weeks

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ryan Parent will undergo back surgery and miss almost six weeks, the team announced last Saturday. "After running the gamut with Ryan in terms of different things we have tried to relieve the discomfort he was having, we felt this was the way to go for Ryan's overall health," Flyers GM Paul Holmgren said in a statement.

Parent has missed the last 14 games due to the back injury. So far this season, he has registered two assists and 14 penalty minutes in 28 games in his flyers jersey.
