from RussianHockeyFans,
Swiss goalie Martin Gerber, who was hospitalized yesterday with a neck injury, underwent advanced examination Monday morning. Fortunately it didn’t confirm the preliminary diagnosis “compression fracture of the fourth cervical vertebra”. According to the new information Gerber has spinal contusion and recovering will take weeks, not months.
I avoided posting information on Gerber’s injury yesterday, I just had a feeling the early reports were not correct. Glad to hear the injury is not as serious as first thought to be.
