Ducks' Beauchemin has ACL surgery

Anaheim Ducks defenseman Francois Beauchemin has had reconstructive knee surgery to repair a torn ACL, the team announced Monday.

The Ducks hope he'll be ready for the start of the 2013-14 regular season.

Ducks general manager Bob Murray told reporters last week that Beauchemin, 32, played the final month of the regular season and playoffs with the injury.

Beauchemin had six goals and 18 assists during the regular season, and he added two goals and four assists in seven playoff games.
