TORONTO - Toronto FC midfielder Carl Robinson underwent season-ending surgery Thursday morning to repair a facial injury.

Robinson was hurt in a collision with another player during training this week and opted for the procedure, which was successful, after seeing a specialist on Wednesday.

The recovery time is estimated at 6-8 weeks.

Toronto has three regular season remaining, starting with Saturday's affair against the San Jose Earthquakes.

The club is three points out of a playoff spot.















If Ryan Getzlaf cannot play in the Olympics due to injury, which player should replace him on Team Canada's roster?
  Steven Stamkos
  Brad Richards
  Jeff Carter
