Sad news for Jesse, he's out for next season.. had both hips operated on.. sounds like joint replacement.. yikes!
https://yle.fi/a/74-20039154
Some confusion about the procedure though.. the article says he had a metal ball and cup installed.. but then he says it isn't an "artificial joint".. which is contradictory.
There are some new joint re-surfacing procedures for knees, shoulders, hips .. where they install joint insert plates on a surface of the joint that is worn out, bone on bone (i.e. no cartilage surface left).. so not the standard complete joint removal and replacement.. which is a major invasive surgery, and I can't see anyone coming back to play NHL hockey after that.
It's clearer now that his hip problems were a real limiting factor to his play..
Hope he can re-hab and get back to the NHL .. its going to be a tough road.

Jesse Puljujärvi , 25, after a difficult NHL season, the summer did not start in the best possible way. The Torniola attacker had to go to the operating table in New York, where both of the player's hips were operated on earlier this week. The recovery time from a major operation is six to ten months.
- I fought with my hips all last season. Yes, you could play with them, but they weren't good. I had to take care of it absolutely insanely and it also took painkillers. I gave everything I could give, opens Puljujärvi, reached by Yle Urheilu from New York.
Hips have bothered the winger with a background already before. Now cleaning was no longer enough.
- Both hips were cleaned in 2019, when cartilage and bone spurs had gotten there. However, now they started to bother again, so a bigger operation had to be done. Now both hips were operated on and a metal ball and cup were placed there. However, they are not artificial joints. The pain should go away and the hips should become normal again, Puljujärvi continues.
The long rehabilitation process starts in New York at the same clinic where, for example, the other hip of American star Patrick Kane was operated on .
- I saw him walking past, Puljujärvi laughs.
- The plan is that I would be here for three weeks now and then I will return to Finland, where we are looking for people with whom I will start rehabilitation.
