Redmond is in good spirits at a Raleigh, N.C., hospital as he recovers from surgery to repair a skate cut to his right thigh. The 24-year-old rookie suffered a gash to his right femoral artery and vein during a practice Thursday. His family released a statement Monday thanking the Jets' training staff and players for their quick action, which the Redmonds say saved his life.

Redmond was accidentally cut by a teammate's skate during a drill. He was taken to the hospital and underwent a three-hour surgery. He is expected to miss the rest of this season.

Redmond has undergone surgery to repair a laceration to an artery in his right leg and will miss the season.

The injury occurred near the end of practice when Redmond tripped and landed on his back. The teammate then stepped on Redmond with his skate, opening a sizeable wound in Redmond's mid-thigh region - cutting the femoral artery. Redmond was rushed to the hospital and underwent a three-hour operation, the team said.

Redmond tallied two assists in Winnipeg's 3-2 overtime win against Florida on Tuesday.

The two assists were the first two points of the rookie's career.
