Umberger (hip/abdominal muscles) will undergo surgery Wednesday, Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. The Flyers announced that Umberger's season would come to an end Saturday morning, with GM Ron Hextall indicating that the forward has been playing through the injuries for months. Hextall acknowledged that the Flyers were aware of Umberger's hip issues prior to acquiring him over the past summer, but believed he would be able to effectively play through the injury before requiring surgery at season's end. That clearly didn't seem to be the case, as Umberger put up a career-low 15 points before the Flyers opted to shut him down for good.
