Former Niagara Falls Flyer Steve Ludzik will have to wait for a much needed liver transplant.

His surgery was scheduled for today, but doctors say more tests are needed before the operation can commence. 

Ludzik has Stage 4 liver disease. 

During his last year with the Flyers, he scored 108 points. 

In 1980, he was picked in the second round by the Chicago Blackhawks. 

He also spent one season with the Buffalo Sabres.
