Oilers' Andrew Ference has season-ending hip surgery

Edmonton Oilers defenseman Andrew Ference will undergo season-ending hip surgery.

What It Means:

Ference was limited to just six games this season. If he's healthy, the 36-year-old defenseman will likely get a chance to bounce back in 2016-17 as he's signed with the Oilers until the summer of 2017.

Ference finishes the season with no points and a plus/minus of minus-four on the year in 78 minutes of ice time.
