Boston Bruins forward Zach Senyshyn underwent a successful appendectomy on Sunday, the club announced on Monday.
The surgery will keep the 19-year-old out of the NHL rookie tournament, but he is still expected to report to the Bruins' main training camp, though his level of participation is not yet known.
Senyshyn was drafted 15th overall by the Bruins in 2015. He is coming off his third season with the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds of the Ontario Hockey League where he put up 45 goals and 65 points in 66 games.
