"On behalf of everyone at NBC Sports, we wish Eddie and his family all the best as they cope with this health issue," Flood said. "Our top priority is for Edzo to get healthy, so he won't be joining us at the beginning of the season. We'll have information on how we'll staff those games soon. But most of all, we're looking forward to the day when Edzo comes off IR and rejoins Doc and Pierre to call the great game of hockey."
