Del Rio Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Andi Petrillo @andipHNIC 1h Swedish media saying Zetterberg is done for the Olympics. Back problems. Also reporting Niklas Kronwall will wear the 'C' Andi Petrillo @andipHNIC 55m Zetterberg can't fly back to Detroit until his back is feeling better. Old herniated disc problem. Has not ruled out surgery. #RedWings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsedin33 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well MG wanted to be like Detroit... We are identical in points, in the standings, and now we both have no Swedish captain Careful what you ask for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 That's a huge loss for team Sweden, and the Red Wings if he's out long term. I thought Sweden was going to get a medal, but that seems unlikely now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azzy Mahmood Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 The dumb thing is, apparently he's had the problem for seven months, but only now did it flare up. If there's one thing I've learned in life, it's this: don't fluck about with back injuries, get it sorted immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's one thing I've learned in life, it's this: don't fluck about with back injuries, get it sorted immediately. Herniated discs are one of the worse injuries you can have. My mom has had her herniated disc for 8 months and it has given our family all troubles. I know what he's going through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Sounds like they were talking to Alfredsson prior to the game, and he'd said Zetterberg felt fine after the previous game but woke up in pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poetica Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 That really sucks! Too bad it had to happen at the Olympics and be so bad he can't even enjoy being there. I hope he gets better. Back problems SUCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 If Sweden finds a way to win this all with their top 2 centers out, I will seriously give some serious homage to the Swedes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Grimes Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Ugh, I've dealt with back injuries since I was 12; I'm now 23. It's why I worry about Edler so much; Every step, twist, bend, turn & bump hurts. It is not something you f around with - I hope he can get back to form before he's forced to retire.

AppleJack Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Oh no I hope zetterberg is okay! Team sweden's pretty much toast now without hank and zetterberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
