Medical Report

MEDICAL REPORT - Roman Schild cannot seem to catch a break. The 28-year-old forward will again miss almost half of the season.

Already missing a lot of games in the last two seasons due to concussion symptoms, he will now have to sit out again. Schmid was symptom free during the summer training, but once on-ice practice resumed, he found himself having problems again.

Two medical examinations revealed that Schild is suffering from post-traumatic symptoms in the area of his upper cervical spine. He has already started with therapy and will be out until the end of the year.
