Anaheim Ducks forward Patrick Eaves missed all but two games this season with Guillain-Barre syndrome - a rare disorder that causes muscle weakness, reflex loss, and numbness or tingling in parts of your body - but it appears he'll be good to go for the 2018-19 campaign.
General manager Bob Murray announced that Eaves had surgery to repair a torn labrum - an injury he suffered during rehab from GBS, per Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register - and should be healthy by mid-October.
Eaves really started coming into his own prior to his diagnosis, scoring a career-high 32 goals while splitting time with the Dallas Stars and Ducks in 2016-17.
