Lindstrom has a microdiscectomy to alleviate nerve pain in his back and is expected to make a full recovery, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Lindstrom will be out for at least another month before he begins working his way back into game shape. Once he's cleared to return, look for the 18-year-old center to spend some time in the minors in the minors with AHL Cleveland, but fantasy players can probably expect him to play a handful of games in the NHL later in the year.
